Jawbreaker

Jawbreaker - Kiss the Bottle lyrics

rate me

It gets lonliest at night

Down at the liquor store

Beneath the neon sky

Our moonlight

Six a.m. the floor comes alive with lice

The pan's dried up so tight

With hardened beans

We're hungry

So I lean on you sometimes

Just to see you're still there

Your feet can't take the weight of one

Much less two

We hit concrete

How were we born into this mess?

I know I painted you a prettier picture, baby

But we were run out on a rail

Fell from the wagon to the night train

I kissed the bottle

I should've been kissing you

You wake up to an empty night

With tears for two

Cigarettes they fill the gaps

In our empty days

In our broken teeth

We're jonesing

Say mister, can you spare a dime?

Some change could make a change

Could buy some time

Some freedom

Or an ear to hear my story

It's all I've got

My fiction beats the hell out of my truth

A palm upturned burnt blue

Don't call it sunburn

You've been shaking on the job

Just one drink ahead of your past

There's a white light coming up

You draw the blinds hoping it'll pass

I kissed the bottle

I should've been kissin you

You wake up to an empty night

With tears for two
