Demons in My Whiskey

(Demons in my whiskey)
(Whiskey)
(Whiskey)
(Whiskey)
(Whiskey)

The lights in here seem a little bit dim these days (little bit dim these days)
It's just like any other night, but something's changed
A couple used to do the trick
So why am I on my fifth?
Feelin' nothin', I should be buzzin'
But I'm starin' down in this cup, and

There's darkness swimmin' in my ice
There's somethin' foggin' up my mind
This bar stool's empty, but someone's sittin' right here with me
Tellin' me I needa keep drinkin'
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel red
My friends all see it
I don't want to believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey
Oh
There's demons in my whiskey

Used to hold one up with my buddies, when life couldn't faze me
Now it's holdin' me down, and I can't figure out how to shake it
There's whispers around these smoke-stained walls
Eyes lookin' at me like I don't belong
What the hell is wrong?
This bar used to feel like home

But, there's darkness swimmin' in my ice
There's somethin' foggin' up my mind
This bar stool's empty, but someone's sittin' right here with me
Tellin' me I needa keep drinkin'
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel it
My friends all see it
I don't want to believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey
Oh
Demons in my whiskey

Is it the past
I'm holdin' back
Or this half-empty glass?

There's darkness swimmin' in my ice
There's somethin' foggin' up my mind
This bar stool's empty, but someone's sittin' right here with me

Tellin' me I needa keep drinkin'
It's the only way I ain't gonna feel it
My friends all see it
I don't want to believe it
I swear that it ain't me
There's demons in my whiskey
Oh, oh-oh
Yeah, there's demons in my whiskey ho-oh

There's demons in my whiskey
Damn, there must be
Demons in my whiskey
