verse 1
It gets lonliest at night Down at
the liquor store beneath the neon sky Our moonlight
dried up so tight With hardened beans
We're hungry So I lean on
you sometimes Just to see you're still there
verse 2
But these feet can't take the weight of
one Much less two We hit concrete
How were we born into this mess?
I know I painted you a prettier picture baby
But we were run out on a rail
Fell from the wagon to the night train
Chorus
I kissed the bottle I should've been
kissing you You wake up to an
empty night With tears for two
tears for two
verse 3
Cigarettes they fill the gaps
In our empty days In our broken teeth we're jonesing
Say mister can you spare a dime?
Some change could make a change could buy some time
Some freedom Or an ear to
hear my story It's all I've got My fiction-
verse 4
-beats the hell out of my truth
A palm upturned burnt blue Don't call it sunburn
You've been shaking on the job Just
one drink ahead of your past
There's a white light coming up
You draw the blinds hoping it'll pass
Chorus
I kissed the bottle I should've been
kissing you You wake up to an
empty night With tears for two
I kissed the bottle I should've been
kissing you You wake up to an
empty night With tears for two
Tears for two
