Half empty whiskey bottle
Pen resting on the paper
Gathering my thoughts
For a song I may not even finish later
I write down a line or two
Rip it up and throw it away
Feels like every word I choose
Don’t matter anyway
Screaming inside, through watery eyes
Looking at the nothing, that’s become my life
Used to be someone, had a dog in this fight
Now I’m sittin’ here in the darkness, there’s not much to write
Lyrics about my life
For the world to hear
But what if nobody’s listening
A song that no one can hear
The whiskey burns going down
Like memories in my chest
A thousand chances wasted
I never gave my best
Screaming inside, through watery eyes
Looking at the nothing, that’s become my life
Used to be someone, had a dog in this fight
Now I’m sittin’ here in the darkness, there’s not much to write
Keep my phone on silent
The quiet’s become my favorite place
Though silence fills the room
It doesn’t take the hurt away
Dreams I used to chase
They’ve all gone and died
Now all I’ve got left
Is this hurt I hold inside
Screaming inside, through watery eyes
Looking at the nothing, that’s become my life
Used to be someone, had a dog in this fight
Now I’m sittin’ here in the darkness, there’s not much to write
Some folks talk about hope
But I don’t feel it here
All I’ve got is silence
And an old guitar to hear
So I’ll sing it soft and low
Till the whiskey takes its toll
If nobody ever listens
At least I bared my soul
Screaming inside, through watery eyes
Looking at the nothing, that’s become my life
Used to be someone, had a dog in this fight
Now I’m sittin’ here in the darkness
There’s not much to write
Yeah, I’m sittin’ in the darkness
And there’s not much to write
