"The Bottle" lyrics

"The Bottle"

She's here, oh the bottle
Says expect of me more than you ought to
Soft dreams, then screams, made up things
Take time, just think what she's brought you
She's here, oh the bottle
Says expect of me more than you ought to
Foolish schemes, what a dream
Take time, just think what she's brought you

There were men who showed ropes
How and what could have been
Fate not ruled by adolescent sins
An open stance and hands
Let the strength of others in
Words heard too late for the aid of such medicine

She's here, oh the bottle
Says expect of me more than you ought to
Soft dreams, then screams, made up things
Take time, just think what she's brought you

Trying to stand tall
Ready willing to fall
Seems underweight
Dying to be great
Travel light
Bob your weave
Keep them backing off their feet
Put odds in the brawl
Grit and grin
Just one step won't let her in, no

She's here, oh the bottle
She's here, oh the bottle
She's here, oh the bottle
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me

She's here, oh the bottle
Says expect of me more than you ought to
Soft dreams, then screams, made up things
Take time, just think what she's brought you

She's here
Look at me
Look at me
Look at me
Take time, just think what she's brought you
