Green Glow of the Past

Shadows flicker in the moonlight, stories told in bottles' glow

Cracks in the silence, secrets spill, where the lonely go

Empty glasses line the bedside, promises in shades of blue

Reflections fade in stained glass, whispers of the old truth

Lost in the echo of a toast, dreams swallowed by regret

A ritual of reveries, yeah, a past you won't forget

Green glow in the dark, a flicker of remorse

Symbols of the night, drawing out the course

Holding on to pain, in a glass that’s half full

Chasing echoes, running from the dull

Bottles of yesterday, memories decay

Perpetual holidays, promises we betray

Reflections in the glass, shadows that last

Drowning in the past, trapped in the glass

Oh, the cycle spins, shadows of sins

A toast to the loss, the lines we cross

In the glow of green, unseen, obscene

Forever caught in the in-between

Silent in the aftermath, hope flickers in retreat

The bottles whisper tales, in the green heat

Promises made in spirits thin, where do we begin?

In the echo of the bottles, we spin.
