Dead for Days

I've been dying for days

There is a bottle under the bed

You like my hands around your throat

Because you believe it is love

There is a bottle under the sink

We share an empty bed

Because we believe this is love

The woman knows her whiskey

You share the empty bed

The whiskey in your throat

I've been drinking for days

Bless the bottle under my bed

There is death in every throat

You tell me all the lies I love

They feel like loss

But I've been dead for days
