Every Bottle

Every bottle is packed with potential

tonight could be the greatest night ever

We'll take shots all around! Shoot em up,

Shoot em down! Had enough? Haha! Never!

Every bottle is flowing with freedom

You are young and so is the night

It's bound to be epic, you & your friends

Running wild until dawns first light

Every bottle is a cure for what ails you

Easing the pain, making you numb

Till you forget that your life's gone to shit

Till you're blubbering, drooling & dumb

Every bottle is like a helpful friend

A bottle will hold happily to your hand

Encouraging urges that sober you resists

A bottle meets your basest demands

Every bottle lowers your standards

A "2" at 10 becomes a "10" at 2

That ratchet skank is looking real hot

And sluts like her will always love you

Every bottle is a self-prescribed remedy

And Lord knows, you've always liked to fly

Bottles are better cuz bottles are legal?

I call bullshit. I say high is high.

Every bottle imprisons a moment

Like a thief whose stolen your time

You never noticed that the time had run out

You never noticed when you crossed that line

Every bottle is a magic carpet ride

Every place you're taken is so much fun

Except when there's emergency surgery

Or you met the business end of someone's gun

Every bottle is bursting with bubbles

Your memories scrubbed of their power

Cleansing the dirty truths in your mind

But fuck, this has been a long shower

Every bottle is a broken elevator

You sink lower each time you're drunk

Careening wildly for a rude wake up call

From the beer soaked gutter where you've sunk
