We've all got our problems
We all have pockets to fill
We've got our grocery lists
And things we've missed to pay our cellphone bills
But I spend my night on the bar scene
Where my friends bartend
So I drink for free
Until the world starts spiraling
And I am poured into the street.
And I can see it all go down from the lights of this town
It is lighting my decent
And all the times that I have spent misunderstood
Rock bottom's never felt so good
Maybe I should try this over
Maybe start doing it sober
I sweat tonight will be the night
That I do not wake up hungover
But all of a sudden the sun is rising
And it's not very surprising
That I'm lying on the roof
Drinking Jack and railing lines
And I can see it all go down from the lights of this town
It is lighting my decent
And all the times that I have spent misunderstood
Rock bottom's never felt so good
Rock bottom's never felt so good
They say you can't do this forever
I don't intend to prove them wrong
But you know even the longest lives don't really last for very long
So I'll live it while I've got it
And what I've got, I'm living fine.
But when you tell your kids your stories
You know they'd all rather hear mine
Because I've seen the sunrise from a million different pairs of eyes
I have smoked many a cheap cigar
And drank many more, cheaper wine
Oh, you don't seem so impressed
At least as far as I can tell
But you know I can play guitar and sing
And I can do it pretty well.
But I owe every lyric,
Every riff,
And every song
To all the things that I have done
Even when most of them were wrong
But you know that is just my life
Where nothing ever is enough
You can tell me what you will about my ways
And I'll politely tell you to "fuck off."
I can see it all go down from the lights of this town
It is lighting my decent
And all the times that I have spent misunderstood
Rock bottom's never felt so good
Rock bottom's never felt so good
Rock bottom's never felt so good
