The Paramedic - My Life In A Bottle lyrics

It’s funny how I used to say “That will never be me” Ain’t it funny how things change? It’s so crazy to see The paths that we’ve chosen The lives that we lead One completely full of lust The other full of greed But now, I’m living in this bottle Praying to God that He Can take me back to when I needed her And she needed me I had to pick my poison And it had to be her And I drink her down every night Just to feel the burn [Solo] I never knew perfection Could become a heart attack But now I’m washing my whole life down With this bottle of Jack I had to pick my poison And it had to be her And I drink her down every night Just to feel the burn I know she’d hate to see me now But I hope she understands That the only time I feel like a man Is with a bottle in my hands Don’t you think it’s time That we stopped playing games? I can see that look in your eyes You still got that flame And yet, here we are Back at it again But this time you’ll be my poison girl You can numb my pain [Solo] I had to pick my poison (Yeah) And it had to be her (It had to be her) And I drink her down every night Just to feel the burn (Just to feel the burn) I know she’d hate to see me now But I hope she understands That the only time I feel like a man (The only time, only time) Is with a bottle in my hands (Yeah)
