Dan Andriano In The Emergency Room - Plain Old Whiskey lyrics

I took a breath and held it in For so long that I pa**ed out When I woke, I was older than Half the bricks that line this town Used to paint with just black and white While I slept, the colours fell It's all so loud, so very bright Is this real? I just can't tell No sir, I don't want it anymore I've waited hours for you, but now I'm gonna go I'm no more the kind to sit and wait But I'm glad I got to bathe here in your punch bowl All I need now, some plain old whiskey To wash my soul Woke up and pinched myself three times Not much changed except these bruises on my thighs Walked down toward the giant mirror What's this unfamiliar smile? I used to wait for someone to come And take the weights right off of me Instead of just getting stronger I've forgotten how to dream No sir, I don't want it anymore I've waited hours for you, but now I'm gonna go I'm no more the kind to sit and wait But I'm glad I got to bathe here in your punch bowl All I need now, some plain old whiskey To wash my soul
