“Vice,” the lead single off of Miranda Lambert’s sixth studio album The Weight of These Wings, is the first music we’ve heard since her much-publicized July 2015 divorce from Blake Shelton. The 32-year-old is undoubtedly in a much darker place than she was in the angry, spitfire days of “Kerosene” a...
[Intro]
Sting of the needle dropping on a vinyl
Neon singer with a jukebox title full of heartbreak
33, 45, 78
When it hurts this good you gotta play it twice
Another vice
[Verse 1]
All dressed up in a pretty black label
Sweet salvation on a dining room table
Waiting on me
Where the numb meets the lonely
It's gone before it ever melts the ice
[Chorus 1]
Another vice, another call
Another bed I shouldn't crawl out of
At 7 AM with shoes in my hand
Said I wouldn't do it, but I did it again
And I know I'll be back tomorrow night, oh
[Verse 2]
I wear a town like a leather jacket
When the new wears off, I don't even pack it
If you need me
I'll be where my reputation don't precede me
Maybe I'm addicted to goodbyes
[Chorus 2]
Another vice, another town
Where my past can't run me down
Another life, another call
Another bed I shouldn't crawl out of
At 7 AM with shoes in my hand
Said I wouldn't do it, but I did it again
And I know I'll be gone tomorrow night
Mm, another vice
[Verse 3]
Standing at the sink, not looking in the mirror
Don't know where I am or how I got here
Well, the only thing that I know how to find
Is another vice
[Outro]
Mm, another vice
Yes, another vice
Ooh, another vice
Another vice
Another vice
Another vice

Miranda Lambert via Billboard:
I feel like when you listen to this song, there’s really nothing to read into. It says what it says. Everybody has a vice. Everybody goes through a time in their life when they run to it a little bit more than when they don’t. When I’m journaling my life and putting i...
