lyrics

Bloodshot and tired, I had a rough night
you know what I mean when I say, rough, don’t you? right?
I would’ve been fine if I’d gotten some sleep
but there was none to get and it wasn’t just me

Made up our faces and mixed what we had
giggling we called and fell into a cab
Scoped out the crowd of a crowded bar
then tore at their flesh like the beasts that we are

‘cause when it gets dark again I start drinking again
throwing my own heart out to the wolves again
If I lose the plot again I’ll just start over again
we’re all gonna hit rock bottom now and then

If you think I’m easy you haven’t got that right
I just pick my battles but I know how to fight
Yes I’ve been beaten but that won’t happen twice
for now my best defence is just to smile and play nice

Until it gets dark again I start drinking again
throwing my own heart out to the wolves again
If I lose the plot again I’ll just start over again
we’re all gonna hit rock bottom now and then

I’ll buy another round for my midnight friends
The bottle’s not a good one but she’s a friend

Looks like I’ve done it again, it must be the weekend
and you must be my new best friends, and friends – it’s getting dark again
let’s start drinking again
throwing our own bones out to the wolves again
If we lose the plot again we’ll just start over again
we’re all gonna hit rock bottom now and then

I’ll buy another round for my midnight friends
The bottle’s not a good one but she’s a friend
And we’re all gonna hit rock bottom now and then
Ya we’re all gonna hit rock bottom,
we’re all gonna hit rock bottom
we’re all gonna hit rock bottom in the end.
