You grab the bottle
I'll hold the glass
We'll toast the future and forget the past
You got an itch
I lost my cool
You ran your mouth, I broke the Golden Rule
How quickly madness
Called to me
As the wine fell to the floor
Your dirty secrets
Quickly came
Spilling out with every pour
Blame the bottle
Blame the smoke
Roll it up and set it free
Accuse the world
Crack a joke
No one's listening but me
So we raise our glass
As we tumble to the floor
You can stagger on your thoughts
As I stumble to the door
Point a boney finger
Shake a fist at me
You can try to pass the blame
But you need an effigy
You hate the world
And find the flaws
You chew it up and wash it down
Are you the victim?
Or the cause?
Are you lost or are you found?
We shake our fists
We cast the blame
We pick our sides and watch the flood
We try to change
It's still the same
We end up trudging through the mud
So we raise our glass
As we tumble to the floor
You can stagger on your thoughts
As I stumble to the door
Point a boney finger
Shake a fist at me
You can try to pass the blame
But you need an effigy
So we raise our glass
As we tumble to the floor
You can stagger on your thoughts
As I stumble to the door
Point a boney finger
Shake a fist at me
You can try to pass the blame
But you need an effigy
You grab the bottle
I'll hold the glass
We'll toast the future and forget the past
You got an itch
I lost my cool
You ran your mouth, I broke the Golden Rule
So we raise our glass
As we tumble to the floor
You can stagger on your thoughts
As I stumble to the door
Point a boney finger
Shake a fist at me
You can try pass the blame
But you need an effigy
