Shot Glass of Tears Lyrics
[Chorus: Jung Kook]
Tell me, am I ever gonna feel again?
Tell me, am I ever gonna heal again?
Got a shot glass full of tears
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
I got all these diamonds running down my face
And I ain't letting any of 'em go to waste
Got a shot glass full of tears
[Refrain: Jung Kook]
She the life of the party
Forty-two in her body
She got some dangerous hobbies
Like chasing after the sun, and making me fall in love
[Verse 1: Jung Kook]
'Til I'm sick to my stomach
Until I throw back a dozen
Until I'm driving a hundred
With my hand's off the wheel, just to see how it feels
[Chorus: Jung Kook]
Tell me, am I ever gonna feel again?
Tell me, am I ever gonna heal again?
Got a shot glass full of tears
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
I got all these diamonds running down my face
And I ain't letting any of it go to waste
Got a shot glass full of tears
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
[Verse 2: Jung Kook]
It's a hard pill to swallow
This emotion, I bottle
Need something strong for the sorrow
Something strong for the pain
So, I can wash it away
I was cold, now, I'm freezing
(Cold, now, I'm freezing)
Stuck in a permanent season
And we both know you're the reason
I'm not the same as before
I don't feel anymore
[Chorus: Jung Kook]
Tell me, am I ever gonna feel again?
Tell me, am I ever gonna heal again?
Got a shot glass full of tears
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
I got all these diamonds running down my face
And I ain't letting any of 'em go to waste
Got a shot glass full of tears
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
[Post-Chorus: Jung Kook]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers"
(Oh-oh, oh-oh)
[Refrain: Jung Kook]
She the life of the party
Forty-two in her body
She got some dangerous hobbies
Like chasing after the sun, and making me fall in love
