Empty as the glass I look to
as cold and still as my heart
the bottom, lifeless stares back at me
One night gone a new day starts

The sun comes up
a new ray shines
into my mind's scope
with the dawn of this beginning
and on it's wings ride hope

I tell myself it's all okay
that all will be forgotten
But if mercy is so freely given
how is it my sins are drunk away
as my savior still lies rotten?

Another day
Another promise
Another reason to cry
Another Monday, another night
Another drink leaves my soul dry
