lyrics

Another cold dark morning
When he opened up his eyes
Another night he can’t remember
No matter how he tries
He’s used to the feeling
His head heavy and confuse
Trying to put the night together
Hoping no one was abused
Abused from the bottle
And all that it revealed
The words he won’t remember
Or the way it made him feel

There was a day when he was hopeful
You could see it in his eyes
Now he knows he’ll never shake it
Another dirty compromise
He’s learned how to take it
Another dirty compromise

He’s made some bad decisions
Ones you just don’t choose
But now it doesn’t matter
He’s got nothing left to lose
Except for losing the bottle
The only comfort he can find
Takes him far from where he’s living
And what is always on his mind

There was a day when he was hopeful
You could see it in his eyes
Now he knows he’ll never shake it
Another dirty compromise
He’s learned how to take it
Another dirty compromise
