Bottle of scotch whiskey not very smoothLike snake bite cure from the medicine manNot bad poison if there's something to sootheIt's a whole other world in the palm of your handOut of this world and out of your mindJust like it don't matter what you're leaving behindTrying to change your life you change your point of viewBut no matter what you do it's the same old youWherever you go there you areYou can run from yourself but you won't get farYou can dive to the bottom of your medicine jarBut wherever you go there you areBottle of scotch whiskey whatever you findWhen you're out on a wire it's a matter of timeChanging every moment when you're taking the fallThere's everything to gain when you're losing it allFeel your head spinning with your feet on the groundYou climb the wrong ladder and it's keeping you downThink you're gettin' higher but you're still layin' lowYou don't want to be anyone you knowRepeat ChorusOnce you've been bitten it's like crossing a lineIt's a part of the plan all that's on your mindThink that it'll help you find somebody to beBut the man in the mirror is all you'll seeRepeat Chorus
