I Plead the Fifth Lyrics
Verse 1
Friday night, same old stool, neon buzzing overhead
Bartender knows my order, never asks what's in my head
Phone lights up, I flip it down, tell myself I'm doing fine
But every time they play that song, you cross my mind
Pre-Chorus
They keep asking where you've been
Why it ended, how it went
I just smile and take a sip
Yeah, I ain't saying nothing yet
Chorus
If you're asking about her, I plead the fifth tonight
I ain't opening old doors under barroom lights
I'm guilty of missing her more than I should admit
So if you're asking about her, yeah, I plead the fifth
Verse 2
Somebody says your name out loud like it's no big deal
I laugh it off like it don't hurt, but man, it still feels real
They say time heals everything, guess mine's taking its time
So I drown it out with whiskey and a bad decision or nine
Pre-Chorus
They wanna know if I still care
If I'd take you back from there
I just raise this empty glass
And let the silence answer that
Chorus
If you're asking about her, I plead the fifth tonight
I ain't reopening wounds under barroom lights
I'm guilty of missing her more than I should admit
So if you're asking about her, yeah, I plead the fifth
Bridge
Judge and jury in my head
Every memory you left
I'd testify against myself
But I'm better off like this
Final Chorus
If you're asking about her, I plead the fifth tonight
Some truths are better buried in the neon light
I'm guilty as hell, yeah, I'll admit
But if you're asking about her, I plead the fifth
