"Standing In The Whiskey" lyrics

"Standing In The Whiskey"

I walked through the fire
Was a born again liar
As I watched my life go up in smoke
I stood front and center
The world saw the sinner
Falling as low as I could go

I could taste the broken
In that bottle I was holding
And I paid more than you'll ever know

I will never be
Who you used to see
When I was standing in the whiskey
I got everything
Right in front of me
When I'm not standing in the whiskey
There's no turning back
Ain't going out like that
Ooohh
Standing in the whiskey

Now I'm standing here holding
The love I was hoping
God willing would show up one day
Wide awake and I'm willing
To feel what I'm feeling
Free to fall in love unafraid

I will never be
Who you used to see
When I was standing in the whiskey
I got everything
Right in front of me
When I'm not standing in the whiskey
There's no turning back
Ain't going out like that
Ooohh
Standing in the whiskey

I can still taste the broken
In that bottle I'm holding
And I paid more than you'll ever know

I will never be
Who you used to see
When I was standing in the whiskey
I got everything
Right in front of me
When I'm not standing in the whiskey
There's no turning back
Ain't going out like that
Ooohh
Standing in the whiskey

I can still taste the broken
In that bottle I'm holding
And I paid more than you'll ever know
