Eighty-Six

Fill the flask with Jack Black
Eighty-six proof those memories
Kill this pain, while our loves fiction and fact remain
Relief still� will only be temporary

Twenty seven years ago tomorrow
God brought you into this world
Twenty seven years later
He�s transplanted you into my heart with sorrow
Infected my every thought with reflection�of us

Strong sour-mash taste better
Than Smith and Wesson�s cold blue steel
Dreams abound my restless nights
Of you, they often will

I won�t call, I never will
For pride is stronger than the Jack, you see
No, I�ll stay and reminisce in the darkness
Fool the mind into thinking, through drinking
That you, may still �love me

So, please pass me the bottle
Throw in just a dash of seven
For there�s the devil to pay
And music to play
While I�untangle my heart, from your heaven
