High Spirits

(album: Retrofit - 2021)

Here's a toast to a night we're soon to forget
The only things we'll remember are the things we'll regret
My heart is empty but my glass is half full
Got a shot that oughta help me to let loose til I lose control

I'm feeling like a letdown
And I know my only hope to cope with the bullshit is to pour it

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the bottle's where I'll
Drown, drown, drown
All my sorrows 'til tomorrow
I'll find comfort in
Feeling numb for a bit
And so I won't stop drinking
'Til my world stops spinning around

Came to on the cold hard floor
I'm still drunk (I'm fucked up) from the night before
On the verge of collapse from a week well wasted
The urge to relapse is so close I can taste it

I'm feeling like a letdown
And I know my only hope to cope with all of this shit is to pour it

Down, down, down
To the bottom of the bottle's where I'll
Drown, drown, drown
All my sorrows 'til tomorrow
I'll find comfort in
Feeling numb for a bit
And so I won't stop drinking
'Til my world stops spinning

Around and around
Another round and I'm down and out
But not down for the count
So don't count me out
Around and around
Another round and I'm down and out
But not down for the count
So don't count me out
Around and around

So I'll pour it down, down, down
To the bottom of the bottle's where I'll
Drown, drown, drown
'Til I've found
Some sort of comfort in
Feeling numb for a bit
Guess there's no use fighting it
My life keeps spiraling down

I'll flood my lungs with liquor 'til I drown
In this fucking drunken stupor I call my life
At least my spirit's high tonight
So I'll drink every drop but it's never enough
Cause my world's still spinning around
