The glass is heavy and the night is long
Smoke fills the room where I don’t belong
Shadows dance to a lonesome wail
I’m chasing dreams that are bound to fail
Pour me a heartache from the well so deep
Sing me a sorrow I don’t want to keep
The room is spinning but I’m standing still
This empty bottle won’t ever fill
The floorboards creak like they’ve got a tale
Of lovers lost and ships that sailed
The moon’s a witness through the window pane
Holes in my story but I feel the pain
Pour me a heartache from the well so deep
Sing me a sorrow I don’t want to keep
The room is spinning but I’m standing still
This empty bottle won’t ever fill
Something sweet cuts through the bitter air
It hums a tune like it just don’t care
Every note’s a truth I cannot deny
It’s the kind of sound that makes a grown man cry
Pour me a heartache from the well so deep
Sing me a sorrow I don’t want to keep
The room is spinning but I’m standing still
This empty bottle won’t ever fill
