Whatever It Takes

(Verse 1) 
Got a cold half rack and a bottle of Jack and I'm about to tip it back and see how I react, 
to night of drinkin, been doin too much thinkin 
about some pretty green eyes, lies, how I was hypnotized. 
They say that liquor is quicker, and brother I'm in a rush just hush this crushed heart thats been cryin too much. 

So here's to the good times, and even the bad 
time to drown my sorrow for the love that we had. 
-Chorus- 

(Chorus) 
This is the only way that I can begin to 
put the past behind me and try to make it through 
I need to be numb for awhile, and try to crack a smile. 
Make it all go away, the sleepless nights and the hellish days. 
take away the pain that just keeps haunting me. 
If this is how it should go, well then just let it be 

(Verse 2) 
So sit back and relax and let old jack attack 
these overflowing emotions about to make me crack. 
Just unwind, no reminders of the bullshit that she put me through 
cause it's all over now, and there is nothing else that I can do. 
They say that time is a healer, but it's not healing these feelings 
all her words in my head have got me climbing the celing tonight. 
-Chorus- 

(Verse 3) 
Theres nothing left but the memory of a love thats dead, 
and the promises she didn't keep rattling in my head. 
so it all comes to this miss, please let me leave you in my past, 
and move on with my life, surely you're not the last. 
I'm using this booze to see who's really in control, 
you see I've been so abused, body mind and soul. 
So excuse me please, but I'm not getting down upon my knees, 
tonight I free the demons your betrayal has unleashed on me. 
-Chorus- 

Got a cold half rack and a botle of jack, and I'm about to tip it back and see how I react.
