Liquid Courage
I was feeling like a wound wide open
Little black dress, I didn't love my boyfriend
And everybody was begging "please break it off"
I was nearly half faded when he met me
Hoping liquid courage passed for dignity
I know without it I never would've smiled like that
And I remember him feeling so dejected
And I was picking up my pieces in the morning thinking "I wouldn't let u walk out if I was her"
I've been feeling like I'm freer now
Can smoke it off and lay it down all in the same stroke
I'm gonna get where I wanna go
He can take me up to his bedroom
And I can act like courageous people do
In my black dress
We broke it off, me and my boyfriend
I got some courage in
I was sitting there with smile lines and beer breath
Tracing my fingers around the divots in his hands
He said "it's pins and needles when you touch me there"
I thought "God show some mercy cause this isn't fair"
And he calmed any insecurity
You awoke in me in one night
Now I can hear all the angles cry as I'm swearing up to the sky
And he said all the things I couldn't beg u to say
Not even on my birthday
But tell your friends what you want
And I'll keep quiet till I've got courage in my system
I've been feeling like I'm freer now
Can smoke it off and lay it down all in the same stroke
I'm gonna get where I wanna go
He can take me up to his bedroom
And I can act like courageous people do
In my black dress
We broke it off, me and my boyfriend
I got some courage in
Lets go driving around main roads and back bends
Don't tell me where we'll go I don't want expectations
I'm kinda thinking this old wound's worth closing
Little black dress, I didn't love my boyfriend
And everybody was begging "please break it off"
I was nearly half faded when he met me
Hoping liquid courage passed for dignity
I know without it I never would've smiled like that
And I remember him feeling so dejected
And I was picking up my pieces in the morning thinking "I wouldn't let u walk out if I was her"
I've been feeling like I'm freer now
Can smoke it off and lay it down all in the same stroke
I'm gonna get where I wanna go
He can take me up to his bedroom
And I can act like courageous people do
In my black dress
We broke it off, me and my boyfriend
I got some courage in
I was sitting there with smile lines and beer breath
Tracing my fingers around the divots in his hands
He said "it's pins and needles when you touch me there"
I thought "God show some mercy cause this isn't fair"
And he calmed any insecurity
You awoke in me in one night
Now I can hear all the angles cry as I'm swearing up to the sky
And he said all the things I couldn't beg u to say
Not even on my birthday
But tell your friends what you want
And I'll keep quiet till I've got courage in my system
I've been feeling like I'm freer now
Can smoke it off and lay it down all in the same stroke
I'm gonna get where I wanna go
He can take me up to his bedroom
And I can act like courageous people do
In my black dress
We broke it off, me and my boyfriend
I got some courage in
Lets go driving around main roads and back bends
Don't tell me where we'll go I don't want expectations
I'm kinda thinking this old wound's worth closing
