bottle of tears

tricks

i've pulled some good ones in my time

and games

i've played 'em with the best of minds

i filled my pockets full of silver and gold

then walked out on love when love left me cold

now i'm a man in a bottle

a bottle of tears

caught up in a heartache

drowning in fear

i'm a man in a bottle of tears

i battle my way to the top and i bottle my way to the bottom

fame

i had my friends

i had it all

and what a shame

there's not a soul that i can call

they all love me when i'm acting the fool

but now they look at me like i'm no longer cool

'cause i'm a man in a bottle

a bottle of tears

caught up in a heartache

drowning in fear

i'm a man in a bottle of tears

i battle my way to the top and i bottle my way to the bottom

oh

i battle my way to the top and i bottle my way to the bottom
