Dial Drunk

I'm rememberin' I promised to forget you now

But it's rainin' and I'm callin' drunk

And my medicine is drowning your perspective out

So I ain't taking any fault

Am I honest still? Am I half the man I used to be?

I doubt it, forget about it, whatever

It's all the same anyways

I ain't proud of all the punches that I've thrown

In the name of someone I no longer know

For the shame of being young, drunk, and alone

Traffic lights and a transmitter radio

I don't like that, when they threw me in the car

I gave your name as my emergency phone call

Honey, it rang and rang, even the cops thought you were wrong for hanging up

I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'll die for you

I'm untethering from the parts of me you'd recognize

From charming to alarming in seconds

I'll be bedridden, I'll let the pain metastasize

But, that's morning, I'll forget it

And the dial tone is all I have

I ain't proud of all the punches that I've thrown

In the name of someone I no longer know

For the shame of being young, drunk, and alone

Traffic lights and a transmitter radio

I don't like that, when they threw me in the car

I gave your name as my emergency phone call

Honey, it rang and rang, even the cops thought you were wrong for hanging up

I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'd die for you

Well, I'd die for you

Thank you, sir, just let me call

I'll give you my blood alcohol

I'll rot with all the burnouts in the cell

I'll change my faith, I'll praise the flag

Just wait, I swear she'll call me back

Oh, son, are you a danger to yourself?

Well, **** that sir, just let me call

I'll give you my blood alcohol

I'll rot with all the burnouts in the cell

I'll change my faith, I'll kiss the badge

Just wait, I swear she'll call me back

Son, why do you do this to yourself?

And I said

"I ain't proud of all the punches that I've thrown

In the name of someone I no longer know (I no longer know)

For the shame of being young, drunk, and alone

Traffic lights and a transmitter radio

I don't like that, when they threw me in the car

I gave your name as my emergency phone call

Honey, it rang and rang, even the cops thought you were wrong for hanging up

I dial drunk, I'll die a drunk, I'd die for you"
