(Verse 1)
I took another sip, thought it"d ease my mind,
But every drop just took me further behind.
Told myself it’s just a way to unwind,
But the truth hit hard when I looked inside.
(Pre-Chorus)
I poured my pain in a jägermister glass,
Chased my regrets with a shot real fast.
Thought I was drowning all my demons out,
But they were learning how to swim, no doubt.
(Chorus)
So I broke the bottle, let it crash to the floor,
Watched the jägermister river run no more.
No more lies, no more alibis,
Tonight, I finally opened my eyes.
(Verse 2)
Woke up every morning with a head full of haze,
Tried to find myself in an empty gaze.
Smiles on the surface, but inside I’d break,
Alcohol was the chains I let dictate.
(Pre-Chorus)
I let it numb me, let it take control,
Didn’t realize it was stealing my soul.
But I ain"t a puppet, I ain"t a slave,
Tonight, I"m stepping out of the grave.
(Chorus)
So I broke the bottle, let it crash to the floor,
Watched the jägermister river run no more.
No more lies, no more alibis,
Tonight, I finally opened my eyes.
(Bridge)
Now the nights are long, but I face "em clean,
No more drowning in a faded dream.
I found my strength in the sober light,
Took back my heart, took back my life.
(Chorus – Final)
So I broke the bottle, let it crash to the floor,
Watched the jägermister river run no more.
No more lies, no more alibis,
Tonight, I finally opened my eyes.
(Outro)
I ain"t perfect, but I’m free,
No more chains, just the real me.
Left the bottle, left the past,
And I ain"t never looking back.
