The Bottle
Sit down with your bottle
Relax, have a drink
Tell him your thoughts
Tell him all that you think.
He?s all dressed up
With sparkles and ice
He?s ready to listen
He?s full of advice.
As you tell Him your day
And the night trickles by
He?ll be there for you
He?ll be there when you cry.
He?s loyal and sure
And He takes away pain
He?ll make you feel numb
?Fun times? He?ll proclaim.
He?s legal by law
With plenty of pride
He has plenty of friends
They all stand by His side.
He?s a Devil disguised
Through his grimacing smile
He?ll sit there and listen
And laugh all the while
But you never can see
Through His tall glass so bright
Then with few passing hours
You?ll be out like a light
And each night will be gone
Each day spent with Him
You thought Him as kind
You thought Him a friend
Then suddenly time
Has been left in the dust
What happened to me?
Blame something, I must.
Time spent with your kids
Is there but not true
They are there, but your not
They can see Him in you.
And time will soon tell
Whom you chose to see more
Bottle or Life?
It becomes such a chore.
No matter at all
To your bottle, so blank
?It?s not My fault,? He?ll say
?I?m only a drink.?
?Both your Grandpa?s loved Me
With Me life they spent
At what cost, I don?t care.
I don?t care where they went.?
?Your Uncle loves me
His life?s wasted away
He?s still telling Me thoughts
To Me, He?s devoted each day.?
?So I will not subside
I?ll keep coming around
I?m a soldier of pride
I will stand my own ground.?
?You can throw me out
On other?s tables I?ll sit
I?ll just spend life with them
Cause I never will quit.
?You Can put me away
You Can feel what you should
You Can see with your heart
You Can decide Life is Good!?
?But it is Your choice
Life is Your own lotto
This game is Your life
And I?m only a bottle?
