| Eric Church – Jack Daniels Lyrics | 13 years ago |
| this song isnt about getting a hangover at all!! if youve ever been going through a hard time emotionally and pushed your limits with jack daniels to help numb the pain you know immediatly what this song means. that isnt how it works. i never understood the phrase "jack daniels brings you to your knees" untill i had my own dealings with him. you drink to drain your pain and he literally brought me to my knees. he turns you into a big ol sap. you will cry your eyes out and everything comes out into the open. the manliest of men will "get their asses kicked" if they mess with him. now understanding this, read the lyrics again. he is describing missing his lady and trying to drink her away but Jack wont have it.... hope this opened some eyes to his lyrics through my own personal experience. | |

i personally like to listen to lyrics and find my own meanings that relate to me in my life. this is how i feel about it. "The faces all around me they don't smile they just crack" i feel like ive been hurt one two many times and u cant trust people and their intentions anymore "Waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back" waiting for my ship to come to carry me back on naive-ly like i did before i got hurt. but its never coming back. whats done is done. "We do our time like pennies in a jar What are we saving for" now once we are hurt we hold ourselves back scared to put ourselves out there again. but what are u saving for? "There's a smell of stale fear that's reeking from our skins." scared to death of how we are wronged we cant operate without it controling out lives... "The drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins" i personally slightly resolved to drinking to fill in the empty hole i was left with. it makes it all 'better' for the time being "We sit and grow our roots into the floor But what are we waiting for?" we get scared and set in our ways as to not step out of the boundaries we set for ourselves. "So give me something to believe" i need something to believe in to give me hope out of this hopeless situation "Cause I am living just to breathe" im living by the minimal way possible. nothing more. staying in my shell and not living life keeps me from getting hurt "And I need something more To keep on breathing for" i need hope and a reason to pick myself up, dust my knees off, and start living again. and as the line says next: "So give me something to believe" "Something's always coming you can hear it in the ground" figuratively its always in the back of my mind. i cant let it go and always expect it. so its always coming. "It swells into the air With the rising Rising sound" i anticipate the wrong that was done to me being done to me and the anxiety builds up till its almost unbearable. "And never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors" it doesnt necessarily happen again at all. but im shaken up by whats been done to me. it gets me worked all out of place again where it left me before. scared. "What are we waiting for" as it says. ur waiting for it. but its not necessarily at your door knocking... "I am hiding from some beast But the beast was always here" im trying to protect myself from getting hurt again but instead i created a beast within myself instead of letting it go "Watching without eyes Because the beast is just my fear" as it says. my fear developed into a beast "That I am just nothing Now its just what I've become" scared my hurt will hold me back and make me nothing yet my fear is what i am... "What am I waiting for Its already done" im scared of getting hurt but it is in the past and i now need to let it go and start new i hope someone else can relate how i did. these lyrics and my connection to them mean a lot to me. it helped me to sort through my emotions. thanks... |
