Pour Me Another
Atmosphere
"Naw, naw, naw, lost my I.D. man. I don't have it.
Come on, man. I come here every day man, you know me, man.
Come on, man, you know me man."
And all she wanted was a little bit of solid
Feels like love, it doesn't matter what you call it
Heal those cuts or hide them underneath the polish
Break another promise and take me as a hostage
Hold your job down and let the zombies crowd around
Thankin' mommy's god that it's a cop's town
Keep it safe for me while I chase a fantasy
Swerving through the galaxy, searchin' for a family
Happily surrounded my planets and stars
She was stuck uptown, you was landin' on Mars
It's all fucked up now, caught your hand in the jar
Another small step back for that man in the bar (hey bartender)
Spill a little bit of blood on the street for love
that goes to those that know that they drink too much
And hold your own glass up to the heavens
Take a little time and try to count the seconds, it goes
[Chorus] x2
Pour me another, so I can come get you now
Pour me another, so I can come let you down
Pour me another, so I can remember how
true that I am to this addiction of you
Drink it all the way, numb it down to none
Stay awake tonight and wait for the sun
You say you hate your life, you ain't the only one
Let your frustration out the gate and watch the pony run
One double for the hunger and the struggle
Two for the fool tryin'a pool apart the puzzle
Three, now I smile while I wait for your rebuttal
By the fourth shot, I'm just another child in a bubble
Tryin'a play with the passion and the placement
Just to see what these people let him get away with
Still tryin' to climb a mountain for you
Hammerin' my hand, still poundin' on a screw
She don't listen, so we don't speak no more
Nobody's winnin' cause neither is keeping score
Don't wanna think no more, just let me drink some more
Pour me another, 'cause I can still see the flour
[Chorus] x2
Pour me another, so I can come get you now
Pour me another, so I can come let you down
Pour me another, so I can remember how
true that I am to this addiction of you
Live life tipsy
Stiff if it don't fit right with me
Kiss my whiskey
Lift my lips, press to my angel
Swallow it and leave an empty bottle on the table
Let the mast fall
Making faces at that clock on the back wall
Count down to last call
Ask all these people that make sounds
How long does it take for the pace to break down
Another lonely little trophy
If only I could walk a straight line, I'd make it home free
And everybody in this bar thinks they know me
And my story like "Pour Me" (yeah pour me another homie)
I could count the days 'till you come back
Or I could follow those sunrays down to the train tracks
I could stumble drunk over hope and love
Or I could just keep drinkin' until I sober up (hey waitress)
[Chorus] x2
Pour me another, so I can come get you now
Pour me another, so I can come let you down
Pour me another, so I can remember how
true that I am to this addiction of you
Bottles and pints, shots and cans
Couches and floors, and drunk best friends
Models and whores and tattooed hands
Cities and secrets and cats and vans
Good times, laughter, bad decisions
Strippers and actors, and average musicians
Mornings after and walks of shame
The bartender knows me by my real name
Sing it
