From the recording Politics and Religion

Lyrics

I’m not much of a talker
I keep things to myself
I try to bury memories
But some are later felt

It’s a choice to cross a line
I’ve drawn to stay behind
But you can’t help yourself
You cross it every time

I’ll pour myself a drink
This time I’m not gonna let the silence speak
I’ve held back but now it’s coming out
The tequila’s talking now
The tequila’s talking now

We grew apart so slowly
It was like staring at a clock
It’s sad it came to this but it’s okay
Cuz when one things done another one starts

I see my look in the mirror
I know I’ve had enough
I’m not one to waste my words
I’ve learned to bite my tongue

But I’ll just have another drink
This time I won’t let the silence speak
It’ll cut deep but leave you with no doubt
The tequila’s talking now
The tequila’s talking now

I can’t stand by
What you stand for
I guess our differences
I can no longer ignore

I’ll have a shot or two
I won’t look back as the door closes on you
I’m loose and in my walking shoes
The tequila’s talking now
The tequila’s talking now
