We pick up in New YorkExplain City Try to find a man I never got to be But when I push down on the pavement I found the whole thing so much harder than it seemed The only deal I ever signed No devil drew a dotted line The stage was set, the words were mine I'm not complainin' Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off, and repeat It's just a phase, it's not forever It's just a phase, but I still might have a ways to go Every night around this time My friends and I retreated like a race When I really start to break it down I wouldn't trust a girl who knew about this place Barkin' on with no one left Speak softly underneath my breath "Hey world, you ain't seen nothin' left" Great, now it's rainin' Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off, and repeat It's just a phase, it's not forever It's just a phase, but I still might have a ways to go Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Dream somebody missed me Wake up, shake it off, and repeat And repeat and repeat after me Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Cut me off and pour me in the street Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water sleep

Dancin' on the creek bank Blue eyes and auburn hair It was the best years of our life Didn't have a care Goin' 90 miles an hour Drunk in an old dirt road Two young ass kids Back where the dogwood flowers grow Then graduation came You was big city bound I was goin' nowhere fast So I just hung around By the next time I seen you Your love had turned cold So I guess you broke my heart Back where the dogwood flowers grow White on the bloom, that April moon It could have been forever, darlin', had we stayed together But you had to go, time don't slow It took me further from your home, back where the dogwood flowers grow So I took to drinkin' I guess you wouldn't recognize me My soul's been torn and twisted Like an old dogwood tree We used to talk about forever That was a million miles ago So I'll see it if I see Back where the dogwood flowers grow White on the bloom, that April moon You ain't dead set on leavin', when you miss the one you need Just getting real, he'll remember when You had that hand to hold, back where the dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow The dogwood flowers grow

I've never been the kind to just turn and run Never lost a battle with a loaded gun Never been confused about who I am Or what I think it takes for me to be a man But lately it's been hell just trying to get by Livin' like I'm livin' on a borrowed dime Watchin' my friends as they're all having fun Whiskey won't you help me make it through this one Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin', I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again Well tonight's been slower than it's ever been Staring at the clock at closing time again The bartender tells me it's time to go Got a bottle of the venom waiting back at home Come tomorrow I'll probably buy some more Black Label Even Williams from the liquor store Back to the bar until my drinkins done Whiskey won't you help me make it through this one Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin', I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again Cause I don't mind I'll sit here and keep on grinnin', drowned my head and keep on livin', I don't mind Guess I'll drink another bottle and drown another sorrow I don't mind I can't wait another minute, won't you help me to forget it again

Tonight ain't the night For nothing but the whole truth That's all I'm asking of you Don't waste my time With lies that I can see through Words that you can undo Before I give myself away I need to know that you mean what you say Are you somebody who can stand the breaking? Strong arms to hold me when my heart starts aching I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Hey, I'm like a little solid ground when the whole world's shaking I want a promise of forever staying I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Untouchable Tell me I'm I'm falling for the last time This won't end in goodbye Will you stay When everything we've built is shattered? Baby, will it matter? This time my mind's made up Because maybe's just not enough Hey, are you somebody who can stand the breaking? Strong arms to hold me when my heart starts aching I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Yeah, like a little solid ground when the whole world's shaking I want a promise of forever staying I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Untouchable Oh, yeah Oh, untouchable Are you somebody who can stand the breaking? Strong arms to hold me when my heart starts aching I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Yeah, like a little solid ground when the whole world's shaking I want a promise of forever staying I'm looking for a love that's untouchable Oh, are you a love that's untouchable?

I am strong I am beautiful The girl I used to be She was confident and free and happy I don't recognize myself Or this person in the mirror staring back at me I'm fighting voices in my head Voices in my head telling me that I'm not enough I'm not pretty, and I'm broken, I'm not worthy of love Voices in my head telling me that I should give up I'm fighting voices in my head, oh-oh-oh I'm fighting voices in my head, oh-oh-oh Words, they can cut so deep Why do I care so much what people think? I wonder who I'd be if I didn't have insecurities I don't know what to think I'm losing all control of reality I'm fighting voices in my head Voices in my head telling me that I'm not enough I'm not pretty, and I'm broken, I'm not worthy of love Voices in my head telling me that I should give up I'm fighting voices in my head, oh-oh-oh I'm fighting voices in my head, oh-oh-oh Stop it, I can't take another minute I'm going crazy with these voices that are spinning in my head Tell my head to listen to my heart, and my heart says I'm done with voices in my head Voices in my head, I know that I am enough I am pretty, I'm not broken, I am worthy of love Voices in my head I know that it's time to give up With all these voices in my head (voices in my head) Voices in my head (voices in my head) I'm worthy of love (voices in my head) It's time to give up (voices in my head) I am strong I am beautiful
