Table For One Lyrics - Somebody's Miracle - Liz Phair

I'm walking down in the basement 

I'm leaning on the washing machine 

I'm reaching back through a hole in the wall's insulation 

I'm pulling out a bottle of vodka 

Replacing that with a pint of Jim Bean 

I'm lying down on the floor until I feel better 

It's morning and I pour myself coffee 

I drink it 'til the kitchen stops shaking 

I'm backing out of the driveway and into creation 

And the loving spirit that follows me 

Watching helplessly, will always forgive me 

Oh, I wanna die alone with my sympathy beside me 

I wanna bring down all those demons who drank with me 

Feasting bleed through me, on my desperation 

I hide all the bottles in places 

They find and confront me with pain in their eyes 

And I promise that I'll make some changes 

But reaching back it occurs to me 

There will always be some kind of crisis for me 

Oh, I wanna die alone with my sympathy beside me 

I wanna bring back all those moments they stole from me 

In my reverie, darkening days end 

Oh, I wanna die alone with my memories inside me 

I wanna live that life when I could say people had faith in me 

I still see that guy in my memory 

Oh, I wanna die alone with my sympathy beside me 

I wanna bring down all those people who drank with me 

Watching happily, my humiliation
