Liquor And Pills
Bryan Andrews Lyrics

Well, I've tried talking to my mama
I attempted to communicate with my mother

'Cause I can see how much it kills her
Observing how much it hurts her

To see me all strung out
Witnessing me in a 'strung out' state

But I just can't take it now
I am unable to handle the situation currently

And I'd be lying if I said that I was over it
If I claimed to have moved on, it would be dishonest

But I guess I found somethin'
I think I discovered something

To help me forget it
That assists me in forgetting

Part of me is addicted to the numb
I have an addiction to the numb feeling

Part of me just can't live with the things I've done
I struggle to cope with my past mistakes

Yeah, 'cause the liquor and pills will take away the pain
Drinking liquor and taking pills reduce the pain

And let me forget about yesterday
That enables me to forget the past

And not even you can beat the way to make me feel
You cannot replicate the feeling that it brings me

And yeah, well, the liquor and pills won't break my heart
It will not hurt me emotionally

And I don't care if they tear my world apart
I am indifferent if they destroy my life

'Cause you already did that to me
Because you already ruined my life

But the liquor and pills will never leave
It will always remain with me

I used to dream about making it big
I used to have aspirations of success

And you were always right there with me
You were always supporting me

I hope this song goes number one
I desire this song to be successful

Maybe you'll come back then
Perhaps you will return at that time

I see you wipe tears from your eyes
I observe you wiping tears away

I know you think that I am heartless
I am aware that you believe I lack empathy

You don't know, how hard it is for me to see you cry
You do not realize how difficult it is for me to see you weep

I'm sick and tired of having these fights
I am fed up with these arguments

But I just keep hoping that one day you might
I still hold onto the hope that one day things might change

That baby, you might change your mind
That you may alter your position

Yeah, but the liquor and pills won't take away your pain
However, those substances will not relieve your agony

Stop reaching back to yesterday
Do not dwell on the past

I never wanted you to feel the way you feel
I never intended for you to experience this emotional pain

Yeah, I never meant to break your heart
It was never my intention to hurt you

Now I'm watching as you fall apart
I am observing you disintegrate

I'm sorry that it's all because of me
I apologize that I caused this

But the liquor and pills will never leave
But those substances will always be with me

Yeah, and the worst part about this, is I'd do it all again
The worst part is that I would repeat these actions

All the heartache 'cause you'll always be right where mine is
I feel pain because you are always near me

'Cause the liquor and pills will take away the pain
Drinking liquor and taking pills reduce the pain

And let me forget about yesterday
That enables me to forget the past

And not even you can beat the way to make me feel (I never wanted you to feel the way you feel)
You cannot replicate the feeling that it brings me (I never wanted you to experience this emotional pain)

Yeah, well, the liquor and pills won't break my heart (Yeah, I never meant to break your heart)
It will not hurt me emotionally (It was never my intention to hurt you)

And I don't care if they tear my world apart (now I'm watching as you fall apart)
I am indifferent if they destroy my life (I am observing you disintegrate)

'Cause you already did that to me, whoa (I'm sorry that it's all because of me)
Because you already ruined my life (I apologize that I caused this)

But the liquor and pills will never leave
It will always remain with me

Whoa, oh
Exclamation expressing emotion
