But you need something to get along
You stare at the flatness
Beside the dark home
They'll not hear you whisper
This isn't where it ends
Your hand holds the bottle
That has become your last and only friend
I've lost all hope
There's hope for you
If not just in the possibility
Of a better next day
If not just in the simple fact
There's no other way
You lie on that couch
And try to dream once more
But your only goal is to sleep
Until the news is over
And outside the leaves are all changing
But you drink to forget
Someone you once met
Stands blocking the bright orange sunset
I've lost all hope
There's hope for you
If not just in the possibility
Of a better next day
If not just in the simple fact
There's no other way
So open up those curtains
And drink up the daylight
Just by the brightness
Open your doors wide
'Cause things don't get better
But some people do
There's darkness in this life
But the brighter side we also may view
There's darkness in this life
But the brighter side we also may view
Beer makes you weary But you need something to get along You stare at the flatness Beside the dark home They'll not hear you whisper This isn't where it ends Your hand holds the bottle That has become your last and only friend I've lost all hope There's hope for you If not just in the possibility Of a better next day If not just in the simple fact There's no other way You lie on that couch And try to dream once more But your only goal is to sleep Until the news is over And outside the leaves are all changing But you drink to forget Someone you once met Stands blocking the bright orange sunset I've lost all hope There's hope for you If not just in the possibility Of a better next day If not just in the simple fact There's no other way So open up those curtains And drink up the daylight Just by the brightness Open your doors wide 'Cause things don't get better But some people do There's darkness in this life But the brighter side we also may view There's darkness in this life But the brighter side we also may view Explain Request ×
