"Lightning In A Bottle" lyrics

Same clothes
Same bed
4 walls
1 head
Am I too far gone
Or just too scared?
Scared of failing
Hiding away in a basement

No backbone
Got no peace
With all those vultures flying in the streets
Yeah I made mistakes, I used to bleed
But now I'm scared of failing
Hiding away in a basement

But when I get like this
I think of my mother's eyes
And how she'd tell me it'll all work out alright
But 'You won't catch lightning in a bottle
Lightning in a bottle
If you don't go outside
And feel the rain
Feel the rain'

So I'll try
To soak it in
And if it hurts
At least I'll be living
I'll let the world see where I've been
And if I end up failing
She'll be my safe haven

'Cause when I get like this
When I get like this
I think of my mother's eyes
And how she'd tell me it'll all work out alright
But 'You won't catch lightning in a bottle
Lightning in a bottle
If you don't go outside
And feel the rain
Feel the rain'
