Sometimes it’s the dishes in the sink
And sometimes it’s about the news I read
But most times it’s all the things I can’t change

Sometimes it’s what I didn’t do
And most nights it ‘cause I’m missin’ you it’s always different
But always the same

That’s why I drink
To get lost, to not think, to get gone, get outta my head take off the edge for a little while
Not to get drunk, just unwind and untangle my mind
I try to remember, I try to forget
That’s why I drink

Sometimes it’s the writing on the wall
Sometimes it’s what I didn’t see at all
Comes outta nowhere
Gone in a blink

That’s why I drink
To get lost, to not think, to get gone, get outta my head take off the edge for a little while
Not to get drunk, just unwind and untangle my mind
I try to remember, I try to forget
That’s why I drink

It’s always different
It’s always the same
That’s why I drink
To get lost, to not think, to get gone, get outta my head take off the edge for a little while
Not to get drunk, just unwind and untangle my mind
I try to remember, I try to forget, I try to forget
That’s why I drink
That’s why I drink
That’s why I drink (yeah) I drink, I drink, I drink That’s why I drink
