Mortal
if you think you're better than the worst
then you've never tasted hell
if you know how easy it can be
to fall to the bottom of the well
then you know
CHORUS: you're only a card away
from losing every bit of grace
from selling your soul
from losing your hollow home
if you believe your prayers keep you safe
then you you've never truly known
if you've seen behind the curtain
you've seen the truth at the bottom of the hole
then you know
CHORUS
so double down on the bottom of the bottle
drink away the memory of the pain
let it all be long forgotten
aint no sense on dwelling on tomorrow's yesterday
you know too well
CHORUS
so double down on the bottom of the bottle
drink away the memory of the pain
let it all be long forgotten
aint no sense on dwelling on tomorrow's yesterday
