[Verse 1]
Ashtray full
Heart on E
Same barstool
Same TV
My name carved into the counter
Like I’m buried here alive
Laugh tracks on
I ain’t laughing
Every “brother” kept a dagger
Turned my back
They turned it faster
Guess that’s how you learn to hide
[Chorus]
It’s lonely at the bottom of the bottle
Talking to the label like a friend
Every promise that I made
I throttled
Till it broke and couldn’t bend
If every face I trusted was a weapon
And every word they swore was just a spin
Then who the hell is ever gonna love me
When I can’t stand the skin I’m in
[Verse 2]
Late calls from the same old numbers
Only ring when they need favors
I play saint
They play savior
Till they drag me through the dirt
Burned out prayers on a cracked screen
Swipe right on a quick fix daydream
They leave fingerprints on my weakness
Then they say I’m the one that hurts
[Chorus]
It’s lonely at the bottom of the bottle
Talking to the label like a friend
Every promise that I made
I throttled
Till it broke and couldn’t bend
If every face I trusted was a weapon
And every word they swore was just a spin
Then who the hell is ever gonna love me
When I can’t stand the skin I’m in
[Bridge]
I don’t need another vulture at my table (hey!)
Picking at the parts I barely hold
If you can’t love me when I’m broken
Unstable
Then don’t come knocking when I’m cold
[Chorus]
It’s lonely at the bottom of the bottle
Talking to the label like a friend
Every promise that I made
I throttled
Till it broke and couldn’t bend
If every face I trusted was a weapon
And every word they swore was just a spin
Then who the hell is ever gonna love me
Till I learn to love the wreck I’m in
