The Next Round

歌詞

I drink because I'm thirsty I drink because I'm dry I'm not yet quite thirty But I feel like I'm dying I drink because I want to, I need to I don't know what else to do with my time I won't say it but you can see it in my eyes You drink 'cause you're lonely You drink 'cause you're sad You always claim every party Was the best time you've ever had You drink 'cause you're scared of a life Of living off your own company You won't say it But I can see it in your eyes Of all of the things I could become A lonely drunkard isn't one For which I would've wished When I was young But drink has drunk my days away I tried to live like Hemmingway Life just doesn't work that way And pills don't kill the pain They just delay We drink 'cause we're scared that If we should stop The good times will go away But the bad times will not And what if it's over and we're sober And we still feel like we're fixing to die What then? Don't say it 'Cause I can see it in your eyes The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me The next round's on me
