too far gone

My heart

Is a happy drunk

A little too open

A little too optimistic

It's over in the corner of the bar

Playing poker

Screaming at the top of it's lungs

I'M ALL IN

When it's never

To this day

Had a winning hand

 

My heart

Is a sad drunk

A little too lonely

A little too caught up in tears

It's over at the counter

Forcing the bartender to take its keys

Because it would rather not go home

Than go home alone again

 

My heart

Is a reckless drunk

A little too unbalanced

A little too impaired

It's over by the door

Making everyone nervous

A little too good at scaring people away

A little too far gone

 

Like you

A little too far gone

Turn your head

Shuffle away and pretend you don't notice

The breakdown of a heart

Too drunk on feelings

To know when to stop
