[Verse 1]
Hey, my love
Buried you a month or two ago
I keep thinking that you're standing on my floor
That you're waiting there for me
Hey, my love
You've walked out a hundred times, how was I
Supposed to know this time that you wouldn't come
That you wouldn't come home
[Chorus]
But four drinks I'm wasted
I can see you dancing, I can lay down next to you
At the foot of my bed
If I drink enough
I can taste your lipstick, I can lay down next to you
But it's all in my head
If I drink enough I swear that I will wake up next to you
[Verse 2]
When you left, you took my bestest friends away
And in this mess, I think I dug a thousand graves
Talia, I hope you're happy anyway
[Chorus]
But four drinks I'm wasted
I can see you dancing, I can lay down next to you
At the foot of my bed
If I drink enough
I can taste your lipstick, I can lay down next to you
But it's all in my head
If I drink enough I swear that I will wake up next to you
[Bridge]
Broke my heart now I'm wasting my time on you
Broke my heart now I'm wasting my time
If I drink enough
I can see you dancing, I can lay down next to you
At the foot of my bed
If I drink enough
I can taste your lipstick, I can lay down next to you
But it's all in my head
[Chorus]
But four drinks I'm wasted
I can see you dancing, I can lay down next to you
At the foot of my bed
If I drink enough
I can taste your lipstick, I can lay down next to you
But it's all in my head
If I drink enough I swear that I will wake up next to you

King Princess told Harper’s Bazaar:
It’s very deep pain and I sat down at the piano and I wrote it in 10 minutes. It’s crazy when it happens like that. Playing it is really cathartic now. It’s the hardest song to play with the band because the production’s so specific and the verses are swung but t...
