Ships in a Bottle - Butch Walker

Everybody sleeps

But I haven’t done that in the last few weeks or so And yeah, I know the remedy

But they ran out yesterday

I can’t re-fill anything

Especially my heart.

especially my brain

If I could bottle up this mess I could do it all again

And I don’t wanna know if there’s another part of me Don’t wanna feel if I’m alive

Don’t wanna smell the bed where we used to sleep

I’m gonna miss it again, miss it again

Just wanna walk away from the ashes

And take the fact that I’ve been burned

And maybe let you know I’m still standin'

If you miss it again, miss it again, I’m around

And you, you were down the street

And I watched you through the windows draped with sheets so white

And yeah, it looks a lot like me Is it a comfort that you needed or coincidence that’s everything

Especially my eyes, 'specially my clothes

But does it move you inside out

Maybe I don’t wanna know!

And I don’t wanna know if there’s that there’s another part of me Don’t wanna feel if I’m alive

Don’t wanna smell the bed where you used to sleep

Gonna miss it again, miss it again

Just wanna walk away from the ashes

And take the fact that I’ve burned

And maybe let you know I’m still standin'

If you miss it again, miss it again I’m around

And all the times you wanted out, you never said a thing about

How we would just become the ships inside of a bottle

Breakin' down, sails fallin' off

Tryin' to stay afloat inside a place you can’t survive

Are we breakin' down?

'Cause I don’t wanna know if there’s another part of me Don’t wanna feel if I’m alive

Don’t wanna smell the bed where we used to sleep

Just wanna walk away from the ashes

Take the fact that I’ve been burned

And maybe let you know I’m still standin'

If you miss it again, miss it again, I’m around
