It Gets Easier

Last night, I dreamed that I'd been drinking
 Same dream I have 'bout twice a week
 I had one glass of wine
 I woke up feeling fine
 And that's how I knew it was a dream
 Last night, I dreamed that I'd been drinking
 Cold burn of whiskey down my throat
 My hand turned into a rattlesnake
 And I laughed myself awake
 And that's how I knew it was a joke
 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 I can say it's all worth it
 But you won't believe me
 Hold down your liquor
 Or swallow your pride
 You'd rather keep it inside
 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 Last night, I did myself a favor
 I called in sick and went downtown
 Drove past the local bar
 A cop got behind my car
 I wish he would pull me over now
 Last night, I let myself remember
 Times I forgot a woman's name
 I blacked out behind the wheel
 How tight the handcuffs feel
 My daughter's eyes when she's ashamed
 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 I can say it's all worth it
 But you won't believe me
 You can't expect her to follow your lead
 She's fine with wine and her weed
 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 It never gets easy

 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 I can say it's all worth it
 But you won't believe me
 Hold down your liquor
 Or swallow your pride
 You'd rather keep it inside
 It gets easier, but it never gets easy
 It never gets easy
 It never gets easy
