Bottle of Tears

[Verse] Just another night in this smoky old bar, Nursing a bottle, with a scar on my heart. The band's playing slow, that same old sad song, A soundtrack to the memories of where we went wrong. [Verse 2] Her laughter still echoes through the halls of my mind, And the whiskey can't drown it, no matter how much I try. The stars in the sky, they don't shine like they used to, And every sip's a reminder that it's over, we're through. [Chorus] Oh, I’m drowning in this bottle of tears, Chasing away what we had for all these years. Lonely nights and these baritone cries, Too many beers, and a heart that won’t disguise. [Bridge] The bartender knows me, she just gives a nod, No need for questions when the pain’s this broad. She fills up my glass, and I make a toast, To the ghost of her love, the one I miss the most. [Verse 3] The neon lights flicker like they're mocking my pain, The juke plays our song, it starts all over again. I've got friends at this bar, but tonight I'm alone, Just me and my memories, and this heart made of stone. [Solo] (Long electric guitar solo with soulful and haunting tones, expressing the depth of the heartbreak.)
