Addiction

Dear Bottomless Bottle See the pain you have caused Your brown paper wrapping Crumpled and lost Oh, look and listen So much pained words you hear The feelings left behind With one drunken kiss Here comes your sibling Box of Promises harboring pills As he gets emptied How much emptiness we feel User and drunkard Mourner I'll be This mountain of hurt Might be the end for us Soon your brown paper wrapping Shall become my heart As crumpled and lost As it will ever be The caged bird of a soul stuck to listen Between the gold and silver bars The door is open yet The bird is too scared to fly You are the cause Dear Bottomless Bottle Your cracked glass Makes the bird afraid I pity you bottle You will never know what you have done The tears you have wrought Will never be paid off So thus I say adieu to you, Bottomless Bottle I'm walking away and taking my cage of gold and silver To a better place barren of fighting and yelling And the sorrow of tomorrow Goodbye Broken Bottle Goodbye Box of Promises harboring pills You kow I'll always love you Even if you can never let it go
