"Why I'm Drinking" lyrics

Give it to me straight
It's okay, this barstool knows I can take it
Don't water it down
The truth is too strong
I just don't wanna face it

And I don't know another way to get your memory out of my head
It ain't gonna take away the pain, but it'll take off the edge

That's why I'm drinking
I've done wasted all of my time thinking
I'd rather drown this hurt than let it sink in
Yeah, that's why, that's why I'm drinking
I got you on my mind 'cause it's a day that ends in "y"
That's why I'm drinking

Numb me just enough
So I can touch someone new and not feel it
Oh, let her wreck my heart
Let her leave her scar
So that yours can start healing

I'm getting pretty good at getting gone now that you're gone for good
I remember picking out a ring, now I'm wishing my phone would

That's why I'm drinking
I've done wasted all of my time thinking
I'd rather drown this hurt than let it sink in
Yeah, that's why, that's why I'm drinking
I got you on my mind 'cause it's a day that ends in "y"
That's why I'm drinking

That's why I'm drinking
I've done wasted all of my time thinking
I'd rather drown this hurt than let it sink in
That's why, that's why I'm drinking
A heartbreak like mine don't need no reason why
That's why I'm drinking
I got you on my mind 'cause it's a day that ends in "y"
That's why I'm drinking
A heartbreak like mine don't need a reason why
