Story Behind the Song
This is a song about making the wrong choices over and over again, but being inexorably drawn to them no matter the consequences...so, yeah...it's about loving the wrong person, more or less.
Lyrics
Your alcoholic Kiss,
It burns my lips...
Makes me feel all right.
Pearls, spread across the bedroom floor,
Could you lock the door?
That way we're not vulnerable.
Everyone's got demons they don't understand.
Like, I know you would sleep with me,
But I'm not sure you'd hold my hand.
My little whiskey girl..
Try and take back
all that you've done to me...
The drugs, the drink, the drowning.
Oh, my little whiskey girl.
Time, it heals old wounds like medicine.
Should I let you in,
Just so you can cut me...again?
Words, they don't mean enough these days.
All the things I say
Wind up bouncing back at me...
Off my little whiskey girl.
Try and take back
All that you've given me...
The drugs, the drink, the drowning.
Oh, my little whiskey girl.
