Escape

Whiskey saved me
Whiskey wrecked me
Whiskey changed my days
I was swimming over there
Now I float this way

I can’t wreck me
I can’t beat me
I can’t fly that way
Self distracted, unaware
Present, tense these days

I remember the first time meeting you
Having no idea we’d still be here
How much you would mean to me
Or that you’d reappear
So, where do we go from here?
Are you going over there?

I’ve got a thing for you

Highways changed me
Highways slow me
Highways must be paved
Way too bumpy, far too strange
Stay up so damn late

Whiskey changed things
Whiskey wrecked me
Whiskey saved my days
I crash land to find myself
Amongst this desertscape

To find a great escape
