The Philosopher
Just a bar room Nietzsche. Watch him ponder on his day
The drink he holds is empty. Are his morals in decay?
Grabs another bottle. Lifts another glass
The drink becomes his burden. As his mood becomes morass
But he's just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly working through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
There sits a young captain. Watch him teeter on his stool
The drink he holds is empty, is he philosopher or fool?
Well, he views himself a scholar. While he skates on cellophane
The magic in the bottle, helps to mitigate the pain
But he's just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly working through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
Just a bar room Nietzsche. Watch him ponder on his day
The drink he holds is empty. Can he wash it all away?
There sits our young captain. Slowly falling from his stool
The drink he holds is empty, is he philosopher or fool
But he just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly drinking through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
No, it never lasts
The drink he holds is empty. Are his morals in decay?
Grabs another bottle. Lifts another glass
The drink becomes his burden. As his mood becomes morass
But he's just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly working through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
There sits a young captain. Watch him teeter on his stool
The drink he holds is empty, is he philosopher or fool?
Well, he views himself a scholar. While he skates on cellophane
The magic in the bottle, helps to mitigate the pain
But he's just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly working through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
Just a bar room Nietzsche. Watch him ponder on his day
The drink he holds is empty. Can he wash it all away?
There sits our young captain. Slowly falling from his stool
The drink he holds is empty, is he philosopher or fool
But he just another dreamer. Drinking slowly through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle doesn't last
Said he's just another dreamer. Slowly drinking through his past
Tries to pour another answer, but the bottle never lasts
No, it never lasts
