Bottle Cap

I keep us in a bottle cap
Who we were and what we had
I guess I knew it couldn't last
But I thank God for what we had

I'll raise my glass
To my trouble past
I know my memories will serve you well

What we had was real
The necklace I won't wear
Tells me the glory days are gone

But I should say

Thank you for the memories
What you made of me
And I'm sorry that you had to see me break

If I could go back now
And play it differently
I like to think I'd make it all work out

But I know I couldn't change it if I tried

I tried to drink the pain away
Didn't work, needless to say
I just hated who I was
The broken pieces I'd become

I've made it clear that I'm not proud
But I grew desperate for the crowd

To hear my cries
In the silent night
To come and take my pain far away

But I couldn't grasp
What we really had
I guess I never thought of it that way

I keep us in a bottle cap
But I guess that's all we had
I was your drunken love who didn't mean a thing

You said you did love me
In the note that I still read
On the nights when I still feel you in my bed

My bed, my bed

I keep us in a bottle cap
But I guess that's all we had
I was your drunken love who didn't mean a thing

You said you did love me
In the note that I still read
On the nights when I still feel you in my bed

My bed

I keep us in a bottle cap
But I guess that's all we had
I was your drunken love who didn't mean a thing

You said you did love me
In the note that I still read
On the nights when I still feel you in my bed

I keep us in a bottle, capped
