Liquid Burns


So you say i betrayed you, well ain't that a bitch.
did you ever once ask youself why?
she whispered secrets to me that you made her swear
she would never once speak.
By god! what a beautiful thing to behold.
a scene of submissive perversion.
complete in devotion. a frozen moment of hell.
pressurize it and savor the taste.
it lingers. the taste of failure
I drink. drown.
The whiskey burns away the pain.
a liquid clarity.
through absolute corruption
i reach a peace inside - i know what's mine.
It's a redneck treasure it comes with the blood.
and we pass it on down.
still you can't understand what you could have had -
'til you lose it for good.
baptized exhumed
nothing compares.
I drink. drown.
The whiskey burns away the pain.
a liquid clarity.
through absolute corruption
i reach a peace inside - i know what's mine.
