Bottlerockets and Beer

Greg's text read
Forgiveness comes with margaritas
Just come over to the house
Marla's turning 33
She really wants to see you
She just left her cheating spouse
Scottdale isn't stuck up like you think
We bump Too Short
By the pool
And invent blender drinks
It's 90 minutes
Driving fast
From Tucson
But light years away
Fron what happened with that
Sunday school teacher
Jeff's girlfriend works in marketing
At Porn Hub
You should really meet her

Setting off bottle rockets and
Drinking beer
Won't be the same
Without you here
It'll be just like
When we were young
Without the pain
But all the fun

Moved past not knowing
How to cry
And selling my dad's Oxy
Just for money to get by
Running from the pain
And the fear
Of our bottle rocket
Teenage years
We were angry when you told our mom
My little brother was shotting up

We blamed you he that was on the streets
But as I got older I had my doubts
You were the only one
Who said out loud
He was headed for a crash
But what you didn't know
Is I got him on that plane
So I acted rash

Life goes off like a cherry bomb
(bomb, bomb, bomb)

I'm not here to make excuses
My little brother's overdose
Dampened all my fuses
Remember your dad
Was a therapist
You knew
How to
Live through this
And keep your bottle rockets
From going off in your hand
I hope you understand

Setting off bottle rockets and
Drinking beer
Won't be the same
Without you here
It'll be just like
When we were young
Without the pain
But all the fun

Setting off bottle rockets and
Drinking beer
Won't be the same
Without you here
It'll be just like
When we were young
Without the pain
But all the fun
