Jack Has His Ways

Why shouldn't I drink?

Rough day, rough night

Nothin sounds right like a good hard fight

Am I sad, no

Jealous? Only a little

Angry, well

Enough whiskey makes anyone angry

Fuck I'm a bad buddhist

I'm clinging to my hope of you

You're not here to reassure me

Fuck I sound like a pussy

Another reason to show that bottle who's boss

I'm singing Dino to an empty room

Because I feel like singing you

Oh how you'd be moved if you were here

Fuck that sounds like a guilt trip

Empty glass already?

Bartender, do your job

Don't act like I don't know how to do your job

Gimme a towel and I'll love up this crowd

Maybe half-pretend I'm single and go cause some trouble

Maybe pretend I'm an asshole and go start a fight

No point trying to stay happy drunk

I'm messy without you so I may as well just get messy

Which reminds me

I need another drink

It's a pointless, endless quest

A useless attempt to replace one second of this shit I feel

With how drunk with joy I am

With you

Oh why can't I be with you

My neighbours tell me to quit whining

I'm ruining their good time

Good

My good time just doesn't exist

Fuck

No point to that one

Maybe I'm drinking because you're drinking

If I pretend really really hard and fuzzy

You'll be here drinking

Laughing at me

Staring at me

Saying it's hot how I drink

Whispering you want me to fuck you

Clawing me

What a sweet game of pretend I play with myself

Ok that shot went down too hard

Last call is funny

When it comes, it's too late to stop you from being

HAMMERED

But too early because you looooove the dirnk - scuze me, DRINK

Fuck last call for never being just right

(Unlike you and how you're always the porridge I choose)

Ooo a window

You like this window

We've both masturbated to fucking against this window

Mine might be more rough

I don't like that you're not here by this window with me

Don't like it so much that I hate this window

Fuck I still sound like a PUSSY

Go ahead

I don't care

Make me a pussy

I'm weak without you

Weak, pathetic, lonely

No man is an island

But I sure as shit feel like one

And not a nice island

No palm tree sundrenched sand dome is me

I'm a little craggy rock no one wants to land on

Dreading the coming tide which drowns it

Speaking of coming tides

I'm admitting to you again

You think it's weird, don't you

How I don't let myself get away

Only because you're too good to catch me

Punish me

Be mad at me

Not for real, anyway

I won't even dream tonight

Passing out brings dreamless sleep

So even in my sleep I'm cheated of you

Just like every time I sleep

Wake me up, my darling.
