Lyrics
As I walk to where I used to live
Reflecting on a journey to a past residence
I try to remind myself of you
Attempting to recall memories of you
Telling lies
Engaging in deception
Felt right
Deceptive actions felt justified
Around you
Deception was prevalent in your presence
Then I met a whiskey and I moved across town
Encountering whiskey and relocating, distancing from past connections
Away from the river and the girls and you
Moving away from familiar places and relationships
I was young
Being youthful and emotionally tense
High-strung
Highly strung or emotionally intense
Over you
Emotional intensity related to moving on from you
And now comes the time
Expressing a time of great need for you
That I need you the most
Despite the need, physical distance exists
But I'm across town
Being physically separated across town
And time will do us well
Hopeful that time will heal and improve the situation
We'll survive by telling lies
Surviving by resorting to deception
We've rationed well
Claiming efficient rationing of lies for survival
We'll survive by telling lies
Reiterating the theme of survival through deception
We've rationed well
Emphasizing the success in rationing lies for survival
We'll survive by telling lies
Repeating the idea of survival through deception
We've rationed well
Affirming the success in efficiently rationing lies for survival
