I tried to play this straight
I tried to do this over
Too little all too late
Each day it's one step closer

It seems that everything is pulling me at the seams
Just don't get too close to me

'Cause every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom of the bottle
And even though I try so hard
I keep reaching for the bottom

You tell me that I won't survive
Unless I fight, you know you're right
But every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom
The bottom of the bottle
I hit the bottom of the bottle

You've tried to pull me in
I tried to drag you under
Who knows how long it's been
Why should we even bother?

It seems that everything is pulling me at the seams
Just don't get too close to me

'Cause every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom of the bottle
And even though I try so hard
I keep reaching for the bottom
You tell me that I won't survive
Unless I fight, you know you're right
But every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom
The bottom of the bottle

Keep trying to break free
But these chains are heavy, chains are heavy, chains are heavy
Keep trying to break free
But these chains are heavy

'Cause every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom of the bottle
And even though I try so hard
I keep reaching for the bottom
You tell me that I won't survive
Unless I fight, you know you're right
But every time I fall apart
I hit the bottom
The bottom of the bottle
I hit the bottom of the bottle
I hit the bottom of the bottle
