The Whiskey Wrote My Alibi-2

I swore I’d never tell the truth, But the whiskey spoke in place of proof. My hands are clean, my soul ain’t right, I hide my sins in smoke at night.

(Male) The whiskey wrote my alibi, Every drop a darker lie. (Female) The truth you drown, I can’t deny, I hear the sin behind your eyes.

(Male) A gentleman smiles, but knives still gleam, (Female) And I still bleed inside your dream. (Male) No priest can hear the words I’ve said, (Female) Your mercy’s gone, your love is dead.

(Male) The whiskey wrote my alibi, Every drop a darker lie. (Female) You pay in scars, you pay in flame, Your sins still whisper out your name.

(Female) The bottle holds your crooked truth, The lies you told in wasted youth. I taste your crimes on every sip, Your soul’s undone, your mask will slip. (Male – echo, almost whispered) The whiskey never asks me why…

(Male & Female together) The whiskey wrote my alibi, And swore the night would never die. Ashes fall where angels cry, But whiskey never asks me why.
