Put Down The Drink

(album: Damage - 2011)

Baby, put down the drink
And baby, put down the bottle
You're starting to sink
And when you're down on your knees, it's so hard to swallow

Your heart is beating like a loaded gun
What's done is done and you're spinning in circles
Where's the girl that I used to know?
Why did you let her go? You know I loved her so

It's never any more than one for me
But always two or three for you

Baby, put down the drink
Baby, put down the bottle
You're starting to sink
And when you're down on your knees, it's so hard to swallow

I don't want to see it go this way
Feeling like tomorrow is just a yesterday
I hate the way it is and to tell you the truth
It's killing me and it's killing you

I can't stand all the ups and downs
The back and forths and the 'round and 'rounds
The in and outs of the slamming doors
It's tearing me apart, I can't take no more

It's never any more than one for me
But always two or three for you

Baby, put down the drink
Baby, put down the bottle
You're starting to sink
And when you're down on your knees, yeah, it's so hard to swallow

I want us back like we were before
Not like the broken glass lying on the floor

Baby, put down the drink
(Put down the drink)
Baby, put down the bottle
(Put down the bottle)

It feels like it's all slipping away
I wish I had you like it has you
It feels like it's all slipping away
I wish I had you

Baby, put down the drink
Baby, put down the bottle
You're starting to sink
And you get high when you're down, but I'm watching you fall

So baby, put down the drink
Baby, put down the bottle
You're starting to sink
And when you're down on your knees, yeah, it's so hard to swallow

I want us back like we were before
Not like the broken glass lying on the floor

Baby, put down the drink
Put down the bottle
(When you're down on your knees, it's so hard to swallow)
Put down the drink
Put down the bottle

Your heart is beating like a loaded gun
What's done is done
And you're spinning in circles
