Plastic Bottle

Jim was just an average guy
Growing up in a middle class world
He got bored 'bout the time when he turned 16
He decided to try a few things, some bad things
Hanging out with a different crowd, living the fast live and nothing to care about
There was a plastic bottle getting passed around
He learned quick this is how they got down
Soon everyone had done got something out

They put it in their mouth and washed it down
Told jim it was his turn and hurry up
He took one out they gave him a cup
Then he closed his eyes and did what they said
It didn't take long for him to feel the effects
He felt a rush that he could never explain
He thought it was good but it would never be the same and he sang

This plastic bottle oh it has what I need (has what I need)
To take away all of those bad memories (those bad memories)
All of those times that used to make me feel sad (make me feel sad)
It makes me feel better than I ever had (than I ever had)

This plastic bottle oh it's been good to me (it's been good to me)
Takes me away where I can finally be free (finally free)
I hope that one day I won't need what's inside (need what's inside)
So I can feel how I felt before the first time

Fast forward about ten years now, Jim has his own plastic bottle of pills
He can't go one day without one, and spends every last dime just to get some
It was a mistake that he can never go back
He'd give anything just to get back on track
The feeling's that he gets now ain't the same
It don't fight off rain it don't cure the pain
But now it's a new day and it's time to welcome to a new place and rewind

Take control of the life that he has
Take mistakes and leave them in the past
He knows it's gonna takes help and lots of it
To take the disease head on just crush it
And to think it all started on that night
An innocent decision that changed his whole life, when he sang

This plastic bottle oh it has what I need (has what I need)
To take away all of those bad memories (those bad memories)
All of those times that used to make me feel sad (make me feel sad)
It makes me feel better than I ever had (than I ever had)

This plastic bottle oh it's been good to me (it's been good to me)
Takes me away where I can finally be free (finally free)
I hope that one day I won't need what's inside (need what's inside)
So I can feel how I felt before the first time
