Lyrics:
He said I gotta twist free from this corkscrew life I’m livin’ in
Pour the pain out of the bottle life’s become
But the whiskey’s always temptin’ me to givin’ in
To one more drink to numb the damage that it’s done
Even when I’m not drinkin’ I’m still thinkin’ ‘bout the booze
It’s a roller coaster spinnin’ me every way but loose
Never knowin’ when it’s gonna stop or when I’m gonna crash
Cause you never see the truth until it’s starin’ back at you
From the bottom of a glass
He said I haven’t kissed my kids goodnight in Lord knows how long
To ashamed they’ll smell the whiskey on my breath
I’ve been told that gettin’ sober is a life long marathon
But I ain’t even got the strength to take twelve steps
Even when I’m not drinkin’ I’m still thinkin’ ‘bout the booze
It’s a roller coaster spinnin’ me every way but loose
Never knowin’ when it’s gonna stop or when I’m gonna crash
Cause you never see the truth until it’s starin’ back at you
From the bottom of a glass
He said it’s my first time to admit I’m powerless
I’m here tonight so I can whip my cowardice
Cause even when I’m not drinkin’ I’m still thinkin’ ‘bout the booze
It’s a roller coaster spinnin’ me every way but loose
Never knowin’ when it’s gonna stop or when I’m gonna crash
Cause you never see the truth until it’s starin’ back at you
From the bottom of a glass
No you never see the truth until it’s starin’ back at you
From the bottom of a glass
