My Life In A Bottle

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)
