By June

I heard the brain starts to heal After seven months of no alcohol Well, it's been four since the split And one since my call I don't know if those months count, if they are true 'Cause I think I'm still just a little drunk on you But maybe if I start today, I'll be better by June So today's the day I'm putting down the bottle Become what momma made me Pick up forsaken pencils Rewrite the script you gave me Walk out into my garden And not feel like I'm aching I promise to myself now By June I'll feel amazing So I'll put down the bottle 'Cause you've probably forgot all I heard the cells get replaced Every seven years, they just come and go If that's the pace your touch gets erased It's way too damn slow I don't know if all that's true or just belief I guess I wonder if you're ever drunk on me I guess it doesn't matter We'll be sober from each other by the time we're thirty So today's the day I'm putting down the bottle Become my mother's soldier Feel you fade just a little Feel myself getting older Walk out of something broken By one more star-crossed lover I promise to myself now By thirty, I'll be better So I'll put down the bottle I'm sure that you've forgot all I can see my knuckles start to pink They've been white since September I've suppressed the urge to drink There's enough to remember By June, the seconds won't feel like hours And what was ours will be mine You'll get your things in the mail And mine will still be at your bedside I used to have a side of the bed Now God knows if I have a side of your head So I'm putting down the bottle Becoming momma's strongest I wish I was a little more objective like my mom is I wish I could have loved you For longer than this song is But it'll pass by June, love To myself, I do promise So I'll put down the bottle By June I'll have forgot all By June I'll have forgot all By June I'll have forgot all
