Last Stand

She was glassy eyed at the bar
Someone stole the keys to her heart
The neon lights they bent the bottles on the shelf
So she bought a few more rounds just to feel sorry for herself

As she'll drinks when she's down
And she'll drinks when he's not around
As she'll drinks away her paycheck
And she'll drink, 'cause she's trying to forget

On a barstool with time to pass
As she peels away the label from a longneck glass
Her cheeks are as red as the leaves in the fall
And she keeps looking down, as if she's expecting him to call

And she'll drinks when she's down
And she'll drinks when he's not in town
And she'll drinks away her paycheck
And she'll drink, 'cause she's trying to forget

The bottles on the desktop, the guitars in my hand
Like a five star general, making his last stand
With every passing second, with every painful shot
I realize just who I am and what I'm not

And I'll drink when I'm down
And I'll drink when no one else is around
And I'll drink every dime of my check
And I'll drink 'cause I got so much to forget
