Kiss The Bottle Lyrics - Etc. - Jawbreaker

It gets loneliest at night 

Down at the liquor store 

Beneath the neon sky 

Our moonlight 

Six a.m. the floor comes alive with lice 

The pan's dried up so tight 

With hardened beans 

We're hungry 

So, I lean on you sometimes 

Just to see you're still there 

Your feet can't take the weight of one 

Much less two, we hit concrete 

How were we born into this mess? 

I know I painted you a prettier picture, baby 

But we were 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 

We're jonesing 

Say mister, can you spare a dime? 

Some change could make a change 

Could buy some time 

Some freedom 

Or an ear to hear my story 

It's all I've got 

My fiction beats the hell out of my truth 

A palm upturned burnt blue 

Don't call it sunburn 

You've been shaking on the job 

Just one drink ahead of your past 

There's a white light coming up 

You draw the blinds hoping it'll pass 

I kissed the bottle, I should've been kissin' you 

You wake up to an empty night 

With tears for two
