There's a message in this bottle And I'll drink until I find it Cause I've searched my soul for answers And discovered I've been blinded Found my reflection in the pools of disregard Fed in streams from water rings Collecting on this bar Where I'm poring over memories But they only help remind me Of a time line mined with should haves And the fading chance at could be Lived in the moment but it didn't get me far Just a few more tragedies to sing to my guitar And they say I'll find my faith All I have to do is pray But as I'm winding down the days I know it's too late to be saved Too late to be saved The path of righteousness is one
That I've never walked upon Only look to heaven When I want to check the weather No hidden message in my verse No need to play it in reverse Spare your needling Save your own soul I'll take care of me Just a sinner in a saint's façade And with a faith like mine I kind of pray there's no God To answer to What would I say? Tell him, 'sorry for the things I've done But take a good look down I'm not the only one' and then he'd Wish me well and send me straight to hell And they say I'll find my faith All I have to do is pray But as I'm winding down the days I know it's too late to be saved Too late to be saved
