“I Drink Because Of You”

[Verse 1]
I walk in the door, you're already mad
You always complain, you're never happy
It's like you just trying to find a reason to hate me
You say I’m late, like I planned it that way
But I’m just tryin’ to make it through another damn day
You say I’m lazy, I don’t pull my weight
But I’m breaking my back just to keep us straight

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know, Your words hit hard, it cuts right through
So I chase my peace with a hundred proof

[Chorus]
I drink because of you, not because I want to
You tear me down with every word you choose
I don’t love the bottle, but it gets me through
No, I ain’t proud of what I do
But I drink,I drink because of you

[Verse 2]
You count every flaw like it’s cash in the bank
Keep score of my sins, never say thanks
You twist my words like a knife in my chest
I try to do right, but you only see less
You say I’m numb, like I don’t even care
But you never ask why I’m always out there

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know, Your words hit hard, it cuts right through
So I chase my peace with a hundred proof

[Chorus]
I drink because of you, not because I want to
You tear me down with every word you choose
I don’t love the bottle, but it gets me through
No, I ain’t proud of what I do
But I drink,I drink because of you

[Bridge]
Maybe one day I’ll walk out that door
Leave the bottle and your battles on the floor
But tonight, I’ll do what I always do
Pour another round… and blame it on you…

[Chorus]
I drink because of you, not because I want to
You tear me down with every word you choose
I don’t love the bottle, but it gets me through
No, I ain’t proud of what I do
But I drink,I drink because of you

[Chorus]
I drink because of you, not because I want to
You tear me down with every word you choose
I don’t love the bottle, but it gets me through
No, I ain’t proud of what I do
But I drink,I drink because of you
