I’m sipping wine and listening to this song right now. The buzz might have something to do with why I like it so much.
Every thought that I repent,
There’s another chip you haven’t spent.
And you’re cashing them all in.
Where do we begin
To get clean again?
Can we get clean again?
I walk home alone with you
And the mood you’re born into.
Sometimes you let me in,
And I take it on the chin.
I can’t get clean again.
I want to know,
Can we get clean again?
The God of Wine comes crashing through
The headlights of a car that took you farther
Than you thought you’d ever want to go.
We can’t get back again.
We can’t get back again.
She takes a drink and then she waits.
The alcohol it permeates.
And soon the cells give way
And cancels out the day.
I can’t keep it all together!
I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…
I can’t keep it all together.
And the siren’s song that is your madness
Holds a truth I can’t erase,
All alone on your face!
Every glamorous sunrise
Throws the planets out of line.
A star sign out of whack.
A fraudulent zodiac.
And the God of Wine is crouched down in my room.
You let me down,
(I said it)
Now I’m going down,
And you’re not even around.
And I said no…no…no…no…no…no…no…no…no…no…
I can’t keep it all together!
I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…I know…
I can’t keep it all together.
And there’s a memory of a window.
Looking through
I see you
Searching for something
I could never give you.
And there’s someone who understands you
More than I do.
A sadness I can’t erase
All alone on your face.
