"Demons In My Whiskey" lyrics

The lights in here seem a little bit dim these days
It's just like any other night, but something's changed
A couple used to do the trick, so why am I on my fifth?
Feeling nothing, I should be buzzing, but I'm staring down in this cup and

There's darkness swimming in my ice
There's something fogging up my mind
This bar stool's empty
But someone's sitting right here with me
Telling me I need to keep drinking
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel it
My friends all see it, I don't wanna believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey
Oh, demons in my whiskey

Used to hold one up with my buddies
When life couldn't faze me
Now it's holding me down
And I can't figure out how to shake it
There's whispers around these smoke-stained walls
Eyes looking at me like I don't belong
What the hell is wrong
This bar used to feel like home

There's darkness swimming in my ice
There's something fogging up my mind
This bar stool's empty
But someone's sitting right here with me
Telling me I need to keep drinking
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel it
My friends all see it, I don't wanna believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey
Oh, demons in my whiskey

Is it the past I'm holding back?
Or this half-empty glass?

There's darkness swimming in my ice
There's something fogging up my mind
This bar stool's empty
But someone's sitting right here with me
Telling me I need to keep drinking
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel it
My friends all see it, I don't wanna believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey

Oh-oh, oh, oh
Yeah, there's demons in my whiskey, oh, oh
There's demons in my whiskey
Damn, there must be demons in my whiskey
