Broken Bottle
Broken bottle
I'm a broken bottle
Sharp to the edges
Shattered and cracked
All over the concrete
Intoxicated with the beverage
That it holds deep with in it
Drops with the spilling
Into the gutter
Mixed in with vomit
Like a broken bottle
I lie here
Unwanted
Got no where to go
No reason to live
So take this broken bottle
Sweep it up in with the rubbish
Cos that’s all I deserve
All that I’m worth
Like glass in the dirt
I’m the ground
Of which no one wishes to tread
I'm a broken bottle
Sharp to the edges
Shattered and cracked
All over the concrete
Intoxicated with the beverage
That it holds deep with in it
Drops with the spilling
Into the gutter
Mixed in with vomit
Like a broken bottle
I lie here
Unwanted
Got no where to go
No reason to live
So take this broken bottle
Sweep it up in with the rubbish
Cos that’s all I deserve
All that I’m worth
Like glass in the dirt
I’m the ground
Of which no one wishes to tread

totally brilliant, especially the line about the vomit mixed in with broken glass-absolute genuis!

Thank you, I was trying to do an anaelogy about an alcoholic, I think alot of people who've read this have overlooked it and assumed that it was about depression.
