Bottom of the Bottle

[Chorus:]
My legs are dangling off the edge,
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend,
I think I'll slit my wrists again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone,
My legs are dangling off the edge,
A stomach full of pills
Didn't work again,
I'll put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

Gone too far and yeah I'm gone again,
It's gone on too long,
Tell you how it ends,
I'm sitting on the edge
With my 2 best friends,
One's a bottle of pills,
One's a bottle of gin,
I'm 20 stories up, yeah I'm up at the top,
I'll polish off this bottle,
Now it's pushing me off,
Asphalt to me has never looked so soft,
I bet my momma found my letter,
Now she's calling the cops,
I gotta take this opportunity
Before I miss it,
'cause now I hear the sirens
And they're off in the distance,
Believe me when I tell you
That I've been persistent,
'cause I'm more scarred,
More scarred than my wrist is,
I've been trying too long
With too dull of a knife,
But tonight I made sure
That I sharpened it twice,
I never bought a suit before in my life,
But when you go to meet god,
You know you wanna look nice.

So if I survive,
Then I'll see you tomorrow,
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow

[Chorus:]

We hit the sky, there goes the light,
No more sun, why's it always night?
When you can't sleep,
Well, you can't dream,
When you can't dream,
Well, what's life mean?
We feel a little pity, but don't empathize
The old are getting older,
Watch a young man die,
A mother and a son and someone you know
Smile at each other
And realize you don't,
You don't know what happened
To that kid you raised,
What happened to the father
Who swore he'd stay?
I didn't know 'cause you didn't say,
Now momma feels guilt,
Yeah momma feels pain,
When you were young,
You never thought you'd die,
Found that you could
But too scared to try,
You looked in the mirror
And you said goodbye,
Climb to the roof to see
If you could fly.

So if I survive,
Then I'll see you tomorrow,
Yeah I'll see you tomorrow.

[Chorus:]

I wish that I could fly
Way up in the sky,
Like a bird so high,
Oh I might just try,
I wish that I could fly
Way up in the sky,
Like a bird so high,
Oh I might just try,
Oh I might just try.



Bullet

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

My legs are dangling off the edge
My stomach filled with pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

Gone to far, yea I'm gone again
It's gone on too long tell you how it ends
I'm sittin' on the edge with my two best friends
One's a bottle of pills and one's a bottle of gin
I'm twenty stories up, yea up at the top
I polished off this bottle
Now it's pushin' me off
Asphalt to me has never looked so soft
I bet my mama found my letter
Now she's callin' the cops
I gotta take this opportunity before I miss it
'Cause now I hear the sirens
And they're off in the distance
Believe me when I tell you that I've been persistent
‘Cause I'm more scarred, more scarred than my wrist is
I've been tryin' too long with too dull of a knife
But tonight I make sure that I sharpen it twice
I never bought a suit before in my life
But when you go to meet god
You know you want to look nice
So if I survive then I'll see you tomorow
Yea I'll see you tomorrow.

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

My legs are dangling off the edge
My stomach filled with pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

I hit the sky, there goes the light
No more sun, why is it always night
When you can't, sleep well you can't dream
When you can't dream, well what's life mean
We feel a little pitty but don't empathize
The old are getting older watch a young man die
A mother in the sun and someone you know
Smile at eachother and realize you don't
You don't know what happened to that kid you raised
What happened to the father, who swore he'd stay
I didn't know, 'cause you didn't say
Now mama feels guilt and mama feels pain
When you were young and never thought you'd die
Found out you could but too scared to try
Looked in the mirror and you said goodbye
Climbed to the roof to see if you could fly
So if I survive then I'll see you tomorrow
Yea I'll see you tomorrow.

My legs are dangling off the edge
The bottom of the bottle is my only friend
I think I'll slit my wrist again
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

My legs are dangling off the edge
My stomach filled with pills didn't work again
I put a bullet in my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.

[2x:]
I wish that I could fly
Way up in the sky
Like a bird so high
Oh I might just try.
