My Life In A Bottle - The Paramedic

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

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

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)
