This bottles gotta help me somethin’s really got me
I got no where to turn
I've been hangin tooth & nail patient as a snail
Hoping I don’t crash & burn
It’s scaring me to death to think about the rest
Of my life as a bittersweet song
But I finally realized when it took me by surprise
Now I’m left to wonder on
As my tongue is a bleedin & the words are a breakin
A little too little too late
My body lyin still as my mind starts to achin
A little too little too late
Yeah my tongue is a bleedin as my mind starts to achin
A little too little too late
A little too little I’m feelin’ belittled a little too little too late
I still don’t understand as I try to make a plan
Under smokey barroom lights
I could drink myself a river but it won’t drown the shivers
Make everything alright
I know there’ll come a time when I’ll stop to wonder why
The hell I just don’t give it up
And will it be worth the sacrifice & hurt
When there’s no guarantees it’ll all work
Repeat chorus
In this house as I sit all alone I’m wonderin
Feelin like a leaf in the breeze
I hear the echo’s of a voice tellin me I got a choice
And I think it’s time to redeem
But when the moon kills the sun & it’s time to get along
And these walls won’t let me out
I wish I had a wreckin ball waiting on my beckon call
So I could knock those fuckin walls down
