Whiskey Sour Lyrics

Now I'm at the party and I hate everyone
There's a band playing but they're almost done
I'm standing at the bar and I hate everyone
When the band finish playing? Are they never done?

A girl next to me spills out her whiskey sour and I'm pretty sour
You made me wait too soon, half an hour

I see a guy that I slept with last year
I'm pretty sure he slept with all the girls in here
I'm standing at the bar and I don't know anyone
But everybody starts dancing coz the band is done

I like that song they're playing, I heard it somewhere as a kid
I should've got the album but I never did

I only came here to hang out with you
I'm chain smoking coz I don't have anything to do
I would have called you if I had some credit on my phone
I always feel so stupid in a bar all alone

You're always late, making me wait
I only came here to hang out with you
But suddenly I have a deja vu..about a deja vu.. about a deja vu..

The typos and errors in this song bother me...

Anyway I think it's about going out and feeling bored, maybe being fixated on one person who you expect a lot from but the reality is they always let you down or don't meet your expectations, and that just adds to your cynicism.

The déja vu part might be about being in this situation multiple times, maybe being stuck in a pattern with the same love interest, other love interests as well, or maybe just feeling alone and bitter too often in general.

My Interpretation

@uncanny The typos and errors in this song bother me...

There’s an edit button at the bottom…

People who’re traumatized often repeat or seem to repeat patterns because they’ve never been given proper guidance or the communication necessary, from friends, family, lovers or authority figures in their life to break what seems to be a cycle. They may also find themselves in the same pattern because the people who seem, at first genuinely interested in them, are all that’s been made available to them because healthy individuals and people who have an idea of what they’re looking for in...

@uncanny @Sum1UDestroyed, Judging from how these two accounts were made on the same day and oddly enough are assisting one another on the same tracks I'm aware of-- I'm going to assume on a whim you're someone I know.

Yes, a person that has parental issues where they were into the most heinous shit and lied throughout their livelihood to not only their best friends but to their partners -- they never held any accountability from this day but lingers online blaming, playing therapist, and reminiscing are very much traumatized. Anyways, I can't fathom on why...
