Liar

I be on the front porch now
Drinking when you're not around
Watch the ice cubes melt down
Then I'll drink those too
All the houses look the same
Neighbors 20 feet away
I'm just waiting for the rain
Then I'll drink that too
New stain on my old shoes now
New blame for that old news now
Who says what I'm gonna do now?
Even I don't know
And my ashtray filled with the butts that I never smoked
And my brain filled up with the words that I never wrote

Maybe I'm a goddamn liar
Who said I couldn't get higher now?
Maybe I knew the truth would hurt so I left you to do the work
Maybe I'm a goddamn liar
Who said I couldn't get higher now?
Maybe we could be okay but you won't know if you don't stay

Hurts good like a new tooth
It ain't what I'm used to
Might look so strong but I don't wanna wait that long
Saw Heaven from the highway
Gonna open up when I say
Don't know what you been on but I know that I can't be wrong
Now my drink all gone and my lungs all black
Hope my blood stay warm when the sun comes back
I got all I want but I can't get that
If the world burns, guess my life's on track
And my phone's filled up with times that I never called
And my room filled up with the signs that I never saw

Maybe I'm a goddamn liar
Who said I couldn't get higher now?
Maybe I knew the truth would hurt so I left you to do the work
Maybe I'm a goddamn liar
Who said I couldn't get higher now?
Maybe we could be okay but you won't know if you don't stay
