Brendan Kelly - Kiss The Bottle lyrics

Artist: Brendan Kelly

album: Wasted Potential


It gets lonliest at night
Down at the liquor store
Beneath the neon sky
Six a.m. the floor comes alive with lice
The pan's dried up so tight
With hardened beans
So I lean on you sometimes
Just to see you're still there
These feet can't take the weight of one
Much less two, and we hit concrete
How were we born into this mess?
You know I painted you a prettier picture, baby
We got run out on a rail
Fell from the wagon to the night train
I kissed the bottle
I should've been kissing you
You wake up to an empty night
With tears for two
Cigarettes, they fill the gaps
In our empty days
In our broken teeth
Say mister, can you spare a dime?
Some change could make a change
Could buy some time
Or an ear to hear my story
It's all I've got, this fiction
Beats the hell out of my truth
This palm upturned burnt blue
Don't call it sunburn
I've been shaking on the job
Just one drink ahead of my past
And there's a white light coming up
And I draw the blinds hoping it'll pass
But it won't pass, boy
I kissed the bottle
I should've been kissing you
You wake up to an empty night
With tears for two
With tears for two
