Dear barkeeper (08.10.2015)

Sometimes I love to come home drunk
Jack fills the hole in my heart
And makes me laugh for no reason
Yes, it keeps me from breaking apart

I never sleep better than with poison
No nightmare that visited me
Peaceful is the silence of the voices
Tomorrow morning I will finally be free

Chorus:
Dear barkeeper,
I need your strongest recipe
Against the emptiness inside
Against the pain in my chest
Dear barkeeper,
Another shot glass full of amnesia
Against the certainty of love,
That will never make me happy

Sometimes I hate you for the hope
The already returns again
I hide an old blade under my pillow
In case that I can't stand the pain

And I'm never awake on the day
Or present with my mind
I make war instead of making love
'cause the dark days made me blind

Chorus:
Dear barkeeper,
I need your strongest recipe
Against the emptiness inside
Against the pain in my chest
Dear barkeeper,
Another shot glass full of amnesia
Against the certainty of love,
That I will never get a chance

A glass for your face in the morning
That you won't know anything
A Glass for your words and your smile,
That the pain will last for a while

Chorus:
Dear barkeeper,
I need your strongest recipe
Against the emptiness inside
Against the pain in my chest
Dear barkeeper,
Another shot glass full of amnesia
Against the certainty of love,
That will never let me free
