So you say I betrayed you, well ain't that a bitch
Did you ever ask yourself 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 saviour the taste
It lingers. The taste of failure

I drink drown

[Chorus]
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 bleed
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

[Chorus]
The whiskey burns away the pain
A liquid clarity
Through absolute corruption
I reach a peace inside - I know what's mine

The whiskey burns away the pain
A liquid clarity
Through absolute corruption
I reach a peace inside - I know what's mine
