Bottle and a lie

Started with a toast, just a couple of sips,

Then the nights got long and the bottle got gripped.

Said I had control, that was straight up bullsh*t,

Chasin’ every high, while my world got flipped.

Used to be sharp, now I slur every line,

Missed calls, fake smiles, said I’m “doin’ fine.”

But the mirror ain’t fooled, man, I see that face,

Lookin’ like a ghost just tryna fill that space.

I lost friends, lost love, lost time I won’t get,

Woke up in my own puke with a head full of regret.

Tryna drown pain just made it hit harder,

Every shot I took made me sink farther.

(Hook)

fuck that bottle, fuck those lies,

F**ked up nights, red eyes, no pride.

Chasin’ numb just left me broken,

Heart full of scars, words unspoken.

fuck that silence, fuck that haze,

Wasted years in a blurry-ass phase.

It don’t heal sh*t, it just hides the truth—

Alcohol stole everything, left no proof.

(Verse 2)

Blackouts, fistfights, lies on repeat,

Apologies I gave that I’d never keep.

Ruined birthdays, burned down trust,

Made my own life rot into rust.

I saw my mom cry, saw my girl leave,

Saw my little bro look at me like, “Please.”

But I was too deep, too far gone,

Chasin’ demons with a bottle till the break of dawn.

Fell asleep in the street, woke up in shame,

Cops bangin’ on the door, callin’ out my name.

Now I’m sittin’ in the dark, tryna piece my soul,

F**kin’ hate what I became when I lost control.

(Hook)

Fuck that bottle, fuck those lies,

F**ked up nights, red eyes, no pride.

Chasin’ numb just left me broken,

Heart full of scars, words unspoken.

Fuck that silence, fuck that haze,

Wasted years in a blurry-ass phase.

It don’t heal sh*t, it just hides the truth—

Alcohol stole everything, left no proof.

(Outro)

Now I pour it out, let the poison spill,

Every drop I wasted nearly got me killed.

But I’m still here, breathin’, tryin’ to change,

Took the chains off — now I’m breakin’ that cage.

F**k that past, but I won’t forget,

‘Cause that pain reminds me what I won’t accept.

No more drownin’ in a glass full of lies—

I choose life now… and I’m cuttin’ ties. (Verse 3 – Females Perspective)

I watched him fade with a drink in his hand,

Turned from my lover to someone I can’t stand.

Tried to save him, begged, screamed, cried,

But you can’t fight the bottle when it’s his f**kin’ pride.

He’d come home late, breath smellin’ like hell,

Say he loved me, but I couldn’t even tell.

Bruised my heart with every slurred excuse,

Told me it’s “just stress,” like that sh*t’s a truth.

And yeah, I drank too — tryna feel less pain,

Started with a sip, ended soaked in shame.

We both got lost in the same damn flood,

I gave him my soul, he gave me back mud.

Had a dream, had plans, now it’s just smoke,

Built a life outta love, then we watched it choke.

Now I stare at the mirror like, “Who the f**k are you?”

Tryna climb out the dark — I’m just done bein’ used.
