i thirst.... by Melinda Sordinoisn't it funny
how that bottle
changes who you are
changes how you act
makes a new reality
you can deal with
isn't it great how
that girl is just
playing hard to get
when she shoves
you into the bar
and shys from your kiss
and isn't it nice
how you're always right
and he's always wrong
and nothing is
ever the same
once the bottle is
empty again. 12/31/2003 Posted on 12/31/2003 Copyright © 2024 Melinda Sordino
