[Verse 1]
I'm losing myself further and further, it seems
And I'm burnin' a hole, I'm killin' all my dreams
You came along, helped me find my way
Oh but I'm so far gone now, don't know if I'll ever be saved
[Chorus]
'Cause there's lightning in the bottle
I'm bound to ride away
That lightning brings my hard times
That lightning brings my pain
But I cannot fix this
No matter how hard I try
I'm stuck right here in misery
The wreckage of my life
[Verse 2]
Yeah I've hit the bottle but not like this before
Half-drunk running around every town with every pretty little whore
More and more I love you, more and more I hate you just the same
Oh and I fill you up just to numb the pain
[Chorus]
'Cause there's lightning in the bottle
I'm bound to ride away
That lightning brings my hard times
That lightning brings my pain
But I cannot fix this
No matter how hard I try
I'm stuck right here in misery
The wreckage of my life
[Chorus]
'Cause there's lightning in the bottle
I'm bound to ride away
That lightning brings my hard times
That lightning brings my pain
But I cannot fix it
No matter how hard I try
I'm stuck right here in misery
The wreckage of my life
The wreckage of my life
[Outro]
I'm losing myself further and further it seems
Hell I'm burnin a hole, I'm killing all my dreams
