I stare at nothing, looking for direction in empty space What once was, has now turned to dust Stale blood poisoned from the cures that never work These tears I've cried have turned to rust Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey I dream all the time of a life that's already been When I wake, then its back to hell Heading into darkness, no future left to claim Every time I breathe it's exactly the same Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Taking me up higher In a room full of friendly fire But it's deep in the soul I can hear the guns fire, hear the guns fire, bang bang More booze can numb the pain Dirty drugs can feed the veins But it's deep in the soul I hear the guns fire, hear the guns fire, bang bang My soul's decaying I'm losing it piece by piece I now stand alone as I wait to die Heading into darkness no future left to claim Every time i breathe it's exactly the same Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey Doom gloom heartache and whiskey
