"Drinking Til It Does" lyrics

"Drinking Til It Does"

At the bottom of a bone-dry rocks glass
There's a memory that looks like us
I keep tryin' to lose it, and drinkin' doesn't do it
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does

The walls are buzzin' like a neon freight train
And I'm a ways away from sobered up
Still goin' through hell and drinkin' doesn't help
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does

'Cause I've tried drownin' in a whiskey river
And I ain't found my way down to the bottom yet
I've tried burnin' out the things I remember
But there's still a lot about you I can't forget
There was a time I was still somebody
Somebody like you could love
And I know there's some things that drinkin' doesn't change
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does

I know I'm probably lookin' at forever
'Til your "Miss me?" makes my phone light up, bet you
Took out my number, and drinkin' doesn't numb it
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does

'Cause I've tried drownin' in a whiskey river
But I ain't found my way down to the bottom yet
I've tried burnin' out the things I remember
But there's still a lot about you I can't forget
There was a time I was still somebody
Somebody like you could love
And I know there's some things that drinkin' doesn't change
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does, yeah

I've tried callin' different blue eyes, baby
But the bed is cold when I wake up
What drinkin' doesn't do is make somebody you
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does
Nah, drinking don't erase all my damn mistakes
But I keep drinkin' 'til it does
