The Bottle Calls Lyrics

There's a bottle on the shelf, it's calling my name,

It's been a friend of mine, but it never feels the same.

I take a sip, then another, just to ease the pain,

But in the end, it's me I face again.

The liquid numbs, but the hurt remains,

A twisted game, I'm caught in the chains.

The bottle calls, I answer every time,

Pour it down, just to feel alive.

But no matter how much I drink it dry,

I'm still alone with my pain inside.

I empty the bottle, but I can't let go,

The loneliness just seems to grow.

I've tried to fill the void with every drop,

But the darkness lingers, it won't stop.

I thought the bottle could set me free,

But all it does is remind me of me.

The drink slips down, but the ache won't fade,

I'm searching for peace in the price I've paid.

The bottle calls, I answer every time,

Pour it down, just to feel alive.

But no matter how much I drink it dry,

I'm still alone with my pain inside.

I empty the bottle, but I can't let go,

The loneliness just seems to grow.

I'm lost in the glass, but it won't heal me,

The more I drink, the less I see.

I've been chasing the ghost of relief,

But all that's left is this silent grief.

The bottle calls, I answer every time,

Pour it down, just to feel alive.

But no matter how much I drink it dry,

I'm still alone with my pain inside.

I empty the bottle, but I can't let go,

The loneliness just seems to grow.

So I'll put the bottle down, for a while at least,

But the silence comes, and I'm left with the beast.

The bottle calls, but I know it's a lie,

Because when it's gone, I'm still asking why.
