Grey Liquor
Echoes of Love Lost: Chris Harper's Grey Liquor Revealed
Lyrics
I've been watching videos of you
I have been watching videos of you.
Of you holding me
Specifically, videos of you holding me.
I've been trying to break my silence, from
I've been trying to break my silence.
From behind the screen
This attempt to break silence is done from behind the screen.
But I'll Pick the pieces up
Despite the challenges, I will pick up the pieces.
Grey liquor, no taste in love
Reference to grey liquor, symbolizing a love with no taste.
Raising my glass to what you've done
Raising a glass to acknowledge and perhaps commemorate your actions.
Bitter cold, facing us
Acknowledging the bitter cold and challenges faced in the relationship.
Wish I could see what you'd become
Expressing a desire to see what you would become.
Grey liquor, no taste in love
Reiterating the theme of grey liquor, suggesting a lack of emotional fulfillment.
Numb by the sense of half your touch
Numbness experienced due to only sensing half of your touch.
The feeling, leaves my walls to dust
Feelings crumbling and leaving emotional walls to turn into dust.
Do you feel the same way as I feel
Asking if the other person feels the same way.
As I'm feeling now
Emphasizing the current emotional state.
Do you know the pain you caused was real
Questioning if the person realizes the real pain caused.
Not sane throughout
Not feeling sane throughout the emotional turmoil.
But I'll Pick the pieces up
Despite everything, I will pick up the pieces.
Grey liquor, no taste in love
Reiteration of the theme of grey liquor and its tasteless nature.
Raising my glass to what you've done

So tired of drinking to forget
Expressing weariness of using drinking as a coping mechanism.
I try and hide from my regrets
Attempting to hide from regrets associated with drinking.
Still hung up on something you said
Still affected by something hurtful said by the other person.
Hits harder, we ain't even friends
The impact of hurtful words making the situation even more challenging.
So tired of drinking to forget
