Drunk Words

[Hook]

Drunk words, sober pain (real talk)
I said “I miss you,” she said “same” (same?)
But in the morning, we act like strangers again (damn)
Why the truth only leak when we drown in shame? (why)
Drunk words on read receipts (read it)
Truth hit hard when your heart’s on E (empty)
I ain’t say it for fun, girl I meant that deep
But liquor the only time I speak... (for real)

[Verse 1]

Henny got me textin' like I’m still in your sheets
Sendin’ voice notes I’ll regret in a week
She reply with a “🥲” — that’s her whole vibe
Sayin' she moved on but the emoji lied (cap)
Used to pull up, no talk, just breathin’
Now we silence in separate cities grievin’
I said, “You broke me,” she said, “You broke first”
We both right, but that don’t fix hurt (never did)

[Hook]

Drunk words, sober pain (you know)
I said “I miss you,” she said “same” (okay)
But in the morning, we act like strangers again (ghosts)
Why the truth only leak when we drown in shame? (why now?)
Drunk words on read receipts (vibrate)
Truth hit hard when your heart’s on E (too real)
I ain’t say it for fun, girl I meant that deep
But liquor the only time I speak... (only time)

[Verse 2]

Couple sips in, now I’m seein’ us clear
Not the you-now, but the one from last year
Before the distance, the fights, the pride
Before we lied just to feel alive (cold world)
Now I vent to bottles, not people
Told the bartender, “I ain’t evil”
I just never learned how to grieve right
So I lose love tryin’ to freeze life (iced out)


---

[Bridge]

Truth don’t text back
It just sit there, cold in caps
Wish I told her that I still break slow
But drunk words the only way she’ll know... (she don’t know)


---

[Final Hook]

Drunk words, sober pain (every time)
I said “I miss you,” she said “same” (drunk love)
But in the morning, we act like strangers again (blocked)
Why the truth only leak when we drown in shame? (drownin’)
Drunk words on read receipts (left open)
Truth hit hard when your heart’s on E (heart low)
I ain’t say it for fun, girl I meant that deep
But liquor the only time I speak... (and you listened)
