So I wake up, minding my own business
'Till I see a dead body in the other room
Never mind, that's just you
And you start shooting at me
Your words are like poison
For some reason I keep on drinkin'
'Till my face turns blue

Time keeps on tickin'
And my head keeps on spinnin'
When are you gonna stop
You say you've hit rock bottom
But you do nothing to reach the top

So I'm gone for ten minutes
And I find ten missed calls
Each one from you
But do you really have anything to say
You don't have a clue of what you're doing
Your mind's in another place
I've gotta ask the question
How long do you wanna live this way?

Time keeps on tickin'
And my head keeps on spinnin'
When are you gonna stop
You say you've hit rock bottom
But you do nothing to reach the top

Take those bottles, throw 'em out the window
Take those memories, shove' em down the drain
I never did anything wrong to you
For you to cause me all this pain
