Uncle Tupelo - Flatness lyrics

Beer makes you weary But you need something to get along You stare at the flatness Beside the dark home They'll not hear you whisper This isn't where it ends Your hand holds the bottle That has become your last and only friend I've lost all hope There's hope for you If not just in the possibility Of a better next day If not just in the simple fact There's no other way You lie on that couch And try to dream once more But your only goal is to sleep Until the news is over And outside the leaves are all changing But you drink to forget Someone you once met Stands blocking the bright orange sunset I've lost all hope There's hope for you If not just in the possibility Of a better next day If not just in the simple fact There's no other way So open up those curtains And drink up the daylight Just by the brightness Open your doors wide 'Cause things don't get better But some people do There's darkness in this life But the brighter side we also may view There's darkness in this life But the brighter side we also may view
