Blood Sweat and Beers Lyrics

I had to have a drink today to stop my hands from shaking,
to keep my heart from breaking, to stop these tears from running down my face.
When I heard the news, I knew that I had failed you.
I wasn't there to save you and I let you down again.
So pass the bottle around, make sure to hold it down,
cause it's the only warmth we'll find tonight in this whole d*** town.
That's what happens when we live our lives like strangers,
we hide from all our failures, oh will we never learn...

I had to have a drink today to stop my hands from shaking,
to keep my heart from breaking, to stop these tears from running down my face.
When I heard the news, I knew that I had failed you.
I wasn't there to save you and I let you down again.
And isn't this a shame; we only found each other through grief, through loss and pain.
And if this doesn't kill us, can we say it made us stronger?
We lost a friend and brother, oh will we ever learn!?

I had to have a drink today to stop my hands from shaking,
to keep my heart from breaking, to stop these tears from running down my face.
When I heard the news, I knew that I had failed you.
I wasn't there to save you and I let you down again.
I had to have a drink today to stop my hands from shaking,
to keep my heart from breaking, to stop these tears from running down my face.
When I heard the news, I knew that I had failed you.
I wasn't there to save you and I let you down again!

I had to have a drink today to stop my hands from shaking,
to keep my heart from breaking, cause I let you down again!
