|
And all she wanted was a little bit of solid |
|
Feels like love, it doesn't matter what you call it |
|
Heal those cuts or hide 'em underneath the polish |
|
Break another promise and take me as a hostage (take me |
|
Hold your job down and let the zombies crowd around |
|
Thankin' mommy's god that it's a cop's town |
|
Keep it safe for me while I chase a fantasy |
|
Swervin through the galaxy, searchin for a family |
|
Happily surrounded by planets and stars |
|
She was stuck uptown while you was landin' on mars |
|
It's all ****ed up now, caught your hand in the jar |
|
Another small step back for that man at the bar (hey bartender) |
|
Spill a little bit of blood on the street |
|
For love that goes to those that know that they drink too much |
|
And hold your own glass up to the heavens |
|
Take a little time and try to count the seconds |
|
It goes, pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you, now |
|
It goes, pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you |
|
Drink it all away, numb it down to none |
|
Stay awake tonight and wait for the sun |
|
You say you hate your life, you ain't the only one |
|
Let your frustration out the gate and watch the pony run |
|
One double, for the hunger and the struggle |
|
Two for the fool tryin' to pull apart the puzzle |
|
Three now I smile while I wait for your rebuttal |
|
By the fourth shot, I'm just another child in a bubble |
|
Tryin' to play with the passion and the placement |
|
Just to see what these people let him get away with |
|
Still tryin' to climb a mountain for you |
|
Hammer in my hand, still poundin on a screw |
|
She don't listen so he don't speak no more |
|
Nobody's winning 'cause neither is keeping score |
|
Don't wanna think no more, just let me drink some more |
|
Pour me another, cause I can still see the floor |
|
It goes, pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you, now |
|
Pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you |
|
Live life tipsy, stiff if it don't fit right with me |
|
Kiss me whiskey, lift to my lips, press to my angel |
|
Swallow it and leave her empty bottle on the table |
|
Let the past fall, making faces at that clock on the back wall |
|
Countdown to the last call, ask all these people that make sounds |
|
"How long does it take for the pace to break down" |
|
Another lonely little trophy |
|
If only I could walk a straight line, I'd make it home free |
|
And everybody in this bar thinks they know me |
|
And my story like "poor me" (yea, pour me another homie) |
|
I can count the days 'til you come back |
|
Or I can follow them sun rays down to the train tracks |
|
I can stumble drunk over hope and love |
|
Or I could keep drinkin' until I sober up (hey waitress) |
|
Pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you, now |
|
Pour me another, so I could forget you now |
|
Pour me another, so I could come let you down |
|
Pour me another, so I can remember how |
|
True that I am to this addiction of you |
|
Bottles and pints, and shots and cans |
|
Couches and floors, and drunk best friends |
|
Models and whores, and tattooed hands |
|
Cities and secrets and cats and vans |
|
Good times, laughter, bad decisions |
|
Strippers and actors, and average musicians |
|
Mornings after and walks of shame |
|
They bartender knows me by my real name |
|
Sing it |
