Bottom of the Glass Songtext

von Whiskeytown

You think that you have found a way to ease your troubled mind
You fill a glass, then drink it down and fill it one more time
Well, the wine will flow and the pain will go but the spell will never last
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
Well, the bottom of the glass is just as empty as your life
You know it holds no secret way to help you in your strife
But for a while you're in another world and you wake up in the past
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
...glass

That bottle there is not your friend when it's gone it leaves you cold
The strength it gives you slips away for it's something you can't hold
Your hands will shanke and then you'll take another from the flask
But you'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
You'll never find the answer in the bottom of the glass
