I’ve been sitting on this barstool 
like every other damn fool 
Still trying to figure out 
where I went wrong
And as I watched her walk away 
I thought “this time she’s gone to stay”
and how my life just became a country song

I thought if I could find her
perhaps I could remind her
I’d hold her close and try to make her see
But there’s just no way of knowing 
all I saw was her goin’, but..
That’s between the whiskey and me 

Chorus:
Between the whiskey and me
right where she never wanted to be
trying to keep us apart
tryin’ to save these two hearts
can’t believe all the damage that I see
so many times she fought
the fight
Between the whiskey and me 

Time goes by and we move on
Anger fades and the hate is gone
Wish I could right all my wrongs
and spare those caught in the crossfire 
Between the whiskey and me 

Repeat Chorus:

Between the whiskey and me
right where she never wanted to be
trying to keep us apart
tryin’ to save these two hearts
can’t believe all the damage that I see
so many times she fought
the fight
Between the whiskey and me

Plan

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about me, and my inability to stick to a plan. I'm great at making plans, but I'm also good at diverting myself from that plan I think if you're going to do something like that you have to have another plan in place, and I rarely ever did today I try to live my life differently and if I make a plan I stick to it if it's not working I reassess make another plan and stick to that one I admire people who can stick to a plan and I think it's part of being a mature person.

In einer Welt, in der man quantitativ konsumiert

By Ann-Kathrin Betz

Dieser Songtext handelt von der heutigen Schnelllebigkeit und Oberflächlichkeit von Beziehungen anhand eines konkreten Beispiels. In der ersten Strophe beschreibt der*die Interpret*in die Entwicklung einer Romanze zwischen ihr*ihm und einem*einer guten Freund*in, welche sich über Monate schrittweise vollzogen hat bis es letztendlich zum Sex kam. In der zweiten Strophe wird beschrieben, dass der Sex nur dem*der Interpret*in*en etwas bedeutet hat und dem*der Freund*in nicht. In der Bridge wird beschrieben, wie der*die Interpret*in von Selbstzweifeln geplagt wird und sich selbst und ihren*seinen Selbstwert aufgrund dieser Zurückweisung hinterfragt. Der Refrain handelt davon, wie schön es ist, Anerkennung und echte Wertschätzung zu erhalten und insbesondere wie selten dies in dieser Welt, in der man quantitativ konsumiert, geschieht.
