Jenny Bruce - BACKLIT BOTTLES
I've got nothin'
Empty room with all the breath kicked out
Silent pages
Staring me down, selling me doubt
Sidewalk, beneath my feet
Against the light, I cross the street
Night is whispering in my ear
Stop, this is only fear
Ice in a glass, music to my soul
Drink and a dream are keeping me whole
If I could write a song, this is where it starts
Backlit bottles and broken hearts
In the mirror
I'm the stranger staring back at me
Bartender’s pouring
Like a boy with a bucket filling up the sea
Underwater, I breathe in
beaten down, paper-thin
Up above I see a hand
But I'm not looking for dry land
Ice in a glass, music to my soul
Drink and a dream are keeping me whole
If I could write a song, this is where it starts
Backlit bottles and broken hearts
Ooh, and I’ve been gone so long
It doesn’t feel like anyone can find me
I’ve got nothing
Empty room with all the breath kicked out
Ice in a glass, music to my soul
Drink and a dream are keeping me whole
If I could write a song, this is where it starts
Backlit bottles and broken hearts
