A Night I Can't Forget
You're a drunken mistake
a night of regret
I can't shake
for God's sake
I hurt someone I love
just for the intake
of your breath
and the connection of our bodies
The liquor's speaking for me
I don't mean a word I say
if I could take it all back
I would not hesitate
You smell like whiskey and cologne
why were we ever left alone
I still feel the ghost of your hands
haunting my skin
You invited yourself in
but I don't ever want to see you again
I want to erase
the flashbacks in my head
of you lying in the bed
I've got guilt eating at my skin
