michael kraun - day drinking lyrics
[verse 1]
world gone mad but i’m a sinner
my mama’s so mad that i’m a drinker
all my best friends are bartenders
i said all my best friends are bartenders, wait a minute…
it’s always last call at the bar when i enter
yeah, i’m a hardly a beginner
yeah, my army is the liquor
friends know me better than to invite over for dinner
less they got some bottles of whiskey to calm me, i ain’t interested
i walk around the city with my pain honest
nah i ain’t rozay but that bottle’s got my name on it
cause i’m about to be gone like the rain forest
so i don’t keep that green close like a chain wallet
i find a dame tourist, convince her to pay for it
anything to keep my mind focused on not staying focused
cause i become a dreamer when i drink (when i drink)
i know i make mistakes when i don’t think (i don’t think)
i turn into a f-ck up in a blink (in a blink, yeah…)
run a faucet of this gin, so i don’t sink
run a tight ship with a vice grip
dodging your advice with a tight lip
staying overnight like the night shift
i’m nice and i write sick
life is a tightrope, without booze, i might slip
[pre-chorus]
honest kid, got no confidence
god knows where my conscious is
[chorus]
cause i’ve been drinking
all day drinking
we all stay thinking
the liquor stay pouring
the world stay spinning
[verse 2]
i turn to drinking whenever i feel inadequate
my greatest fear? be remembered as average
but at least i’ll be remembered as something
at least i’d have no memories of having empty discussions
and at the very least, when the death of me seems to be coming
i’ma rest in peace and the reason: i regret nothing
maybe the bar tabs on nights when i was extra wavy
the drunk texts i sent to girls, the ones who played me
the fights i had with old friends who now confess they hate me
but the liquor brought the truth, and what i question lately…
is do we really need pints of this poison
to help us in revealing all that our minds are avoiding?
are we just escaping from how we feel inside for a moment?
in these times of enjoyment, i’m still confined in aloneness
blinded and hopeless
is my vice a drug disguised as a potion to deny us emotions
as my stress rises like the tide of the ocean
the bartender meets my eyes
what would you like to order?
[pre-chorus]
honest kid, got no confidence
god knows where my conscious is
[chorus]
cause i’ve been drinking
all day drinking
we all stay thinking
the liquor stay pouring
the world stay spinning
[verse 3]
(i’m sorry, do you know me?)
not personally, from your song, only
“talking to the bartender, hoping she’ll console me”
(yeah, funny)
i see loners like you wander through these territories
you forever worry about wasting your time, but yet
it’s like you’re wasted all the time, no disrespect
it just seems like you’re always doing that
i bet you’ll tell yourself that you’re never coming back
but you will
you see, the sh-t you drinking is just a pill
a pill to make you feel less or forget just how you feel
for real, you’re best off walking right out that door
you’re already drunk, think about why you want more
now, f-ck that, you don’t need that, it won’t heal ya
sometimes i go to sleep and wonder if i’m just a drug dealer
take from suppliers and provide to the needy
that liquor making you numb, but i can tell kind of feel me
for real, b, i’d like to say let’s have a safe commute
don’t go chasing shots, only chase the truth
i am not an alchemist, this liquor ain’t no potion
all in moderation, like the waves of the ocean
the rain keep on flowing but i bet your pain ain’t going anywhere
except deeper down your heart, i am well aware
the system should be paying for alcoholics’ medicare
they’re at rock bottom, and it seems you’re getting there
on some honest sh-t
people like you dying everyday, alcoholics anonymous
guess i’m responsible as well
oh well, i guess i wish you well
wish me well?
wish me well? i thought that you could help
be going through some problems and i though that you could tell
who’d you think you are judging me? go to h-ll!
hope they don’t find you at the bottom of the well
[pre-chorus]
honest kid, got no confidence
god knows where my conscious is
[chorus]
cause i’ve been drinking
all day drinking
we all stay thinking
the liquor stay pouring
the world stay spinning
