I'm pushing you away each time I pull up that ol' barstool
Drownin you in every drop I drink
Telling you to go to hell but Im talking to myself
Cause youre not around to hear what I thinkIm trying to teach my heart to hate you but it aint workin right
Now the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonightAnd Lord, its more than just thirsty that Im feeling inside
Cause these tears Ive been crying have left me bone dry
I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy
But the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonightHe said Id have to choose between your love and this old bar room
I just laughed but I guess you knew best
Who cares who's right or wrong tonight, my better half is gone
And this whiskeys laying claim to all thats leftSo I'll just order up another and pretend I'm all right
When the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonightAnd Lord, its more than just thirsty that Im feeling inside
Cause these tears Ive been crying have left me bone dry
I wish the bartender had a cure I could buy
But the truth is I'm only drinkin' me lonely tonightSo I'll just order up another and pretend I'm all right
When the truth is Im only drinkin me lonely tonight
