Irish Whiskey

[Verse 1]
Caught in a revolving door, and my lungs are suffocating
Working hard is my reward and my life is so frustrating
I'm a martyr to myself and a hero to my family
I can feel a breaking point, a longing to be free

[Chorus]
But instead I'll hang in there and suffer with the rest
I'm a drunk and a sentimental man, so
Dust us off a bottle of your best
Irish whiskey and drink with me
To departed friends, to departed friends

[Verse 2]
In the middle of the night I wake up, my heart is pounding
I expected more from life than a house and TV watching
'Cause I wimped out on myself, blame it on my friends and family
'Cause they don't appreciate I sacrificed my dreams

[Chorus]
But instead I'll hang in there and suffer with the rest
I'm a drunk and a sentimental man, so
Dust us off a bottle of your best
Irish whiskey and drink with me
To departed friends, to departed friends
To departed friends, to departed friends
To departed friends
(Departed!)

[Bridge]
Hey there guys, I'm not the enemy
It's just shared frustration that makes us fight
It's a long way to drive to not make any money
Merry Christmas - at least we gotta try

[Chorus]
But instead I'll hang in there and suffer with the rest
I'm a drunk and a sentimental man, so
Dust us off a bottle of your best
Irish whiskey and drink with me
But instead I'll hang in there and suffer with the rest
I'm a drunk and a sentimental man, so
Dust us off a bottle of your best
Irish whiskey and drink with me
Irish whiskey and drink with me
Irish whiskey and drink with me
To departed friends
