You said no matter what that you'd be honest

You said, "Now darling, I'll take care of you"

But last night when you broke another promise

I started to question what the truth is



Wake up in the morning

Something's different in this light

It's like everything is perfect

You don't know what you did last night

Oh, you know the worst thing is

I don't wanna have this fight

You're saying that it's not that

You say that every time



So don't blame the liquor

For the things you say that you don't mean

The small things, get bigger

You're poking holes in you and me



I know that you've got the best intentions

I know that you mean the things you say

But forever isn't something you should mention

If you keep making all the same mistakes



Wake up in the morning

Something's different in this light

It's like everything is perfect

You don't know what you did last night

Oh, you know the worst thing is

I can see how hard you try

You don't wanna hurt me

But that doesn't make it right



So don't blame the liquor

For the things you say that you don't mean

The small things, get bigger

You're poking holes in you and me



And ooh, I swear you change me

You're upset

And do things I can't forget

But, darling, something's got to change

Before it's too late

You could paint a picture of

Put your heart in every line

But the things that we just miss out

Doing damage over time

Don't wanna wake up one day and

Wonder why I just stood by

Kept it on the inside

No, something wasn't right



So don't blame the liquor

For the things you say that you don't mean

The small things, get bigger

You're poking holes in you and me



You're poking holes, you're poking holes

You're poking holes in you and me

You're poking holes, you're poking holes

You're poking holes in you and me
