jason the scorchers - broken whiskey glass lyrics

you crossed a valley that was steeped in blood
my virgin pain was simply not enough
to satisfy the one thing in life that you still desire
a dress of lace and a pint of gin
a little heaven in a needle full of sin
and do the sights you remember
scare you less than the sights you left unseen
you went to church in your party dress
tryin’ to live those blues that you read
from a rock n’ roll magazine so neat and clean
i tried to fight through that emptiness
i feel every time you undress
’cause your playgirl heroes fade away
when the morning ray shines down
’cause i can’t go on living in your broken whiskey gl-ss
someday you’ll find an epitaph that reads
“here lies jason: strangled by a love
that wouldn’t breathe”
you went to memphis to find yourself
read every elvis book on the shelf
even popped a pill or two to feel like a honky-tonk star

but the river didn’t seem so wide
’cause you were looking out but not inside
white soul heroes are made of more than
legend’s trashy dreams
i can’t go on living in your broken whiskey gl-ss
someday you’ll find an note and it will read
“here lies jason: strangled by a love
that wouldn’t breathe”
