Flatness
Beer makes you weary
But you need something to get along
As you stare at the flatness
From inside your dark home
Well "not me" you whisper
This isn't where it ends
Your hand holds the bottle
Which has become your last lonely friend
(Chorus)
I've lost all hope
But there's hope for you
If not just in the possibility
Of a better next day
If not just in the simple fact
There's no other way
You lie on that couch
And try to dream once more
But your only goal is to sleep
Until the news is over
Outside the leaves are all changing
But you drink to forget
Someone you once met
Stands blocking the bright orange sunset
(Chorus)
So open up those curtains
And drink up the daylight
Just by the brightness
Of opening your door wide
'Cause things don't get better
But some people do
There's darkness in this life
But the brighter side we also may view
There's darkness in this life
But the brighter side we also may view
