Lyrics
What a drunk, fucked up mess you?ve become.
Shut your mouth, I?m only beginning.
All the half-conscious things that you?ve done,
baby it?s got you, and it?s winning,
and you just keep spinning out of control
so i?m leaving, yeah i?m leaving you to the bottle.
Why the hell do you think I don?t drink?
Put my keys down I said I was leaving.
And the last thing I want you to think,
is that i?m going tonight still believing
that you really love me, cause you don?t
you don?t need me, you don?t need me more than the bottle.
We could go ten times, twenty times, thirty times more.
If I thought I could help you, you know that I would.
And you really had me, I wouldn?t go,
but she?s got you tonight and i?m not going to fight with the bottle.
Don?t you think I deserve more than this,
I?ve been right here for three trying years now
And the worst part about the thing is
I still want you and there?s never been anyone else
But what you don?t see is you?re cheating, you?re cheating on me with the bottle.
We could go ten times, twenty times, thirty times more.
If I thought I could help you, you know that I would.
And you really had me, I wouldn?t go,
but she?s got you tonight and i?m not going to fight with the bottle.
You said that you?d make me a wife.
You said that you?d build us a life
And I never believed all the lies,
but I knew that you loved me until tonight.
We could go ten times, twenty times, thirty times more.
If I thought I could help you, you know that I would.
And you really had me, I wouldn?t go,
but she?s got you tonight and i?m not going to fight with the bottle.
