lyrics

He takes a break it's 6pm,
weekday is over night starts again,
some likely lads call it's time for goin' out.
He had the choice of doin' or leavin'
he didn't get along so believe it,
it's a cage in a world of battered pieces.
Hiding your face and denying yourself,
defying the people and watching the wealth,
a hole in his heart gets filled with ballentines
gets filled with ballentines

They could have seen it come
that he'll break out tonight
but is it worth the fight?
Cause all the tears were torn,
no he can't get along
he is not ready

Learning,working, dying alone,
digging through mud or climbing a throne
side splitting days,
they need to be a crack.
Hiding yourself and denying your heart,
smile to the world to get drifted apart
a hole in his heart gets filled with red wine
gets filled with red wine

They could have seen it come
that he'll break out tonight
but is it worth the fight?
Cause all the tears were torn,
no he can't get along
he's still not ready

So help when he falls again,
or it's never gonna be the same life you had before with him.
Baby that's for sure

He takes a tablet while drinking tea
the long nights party's over and
you can see
Whisky, Wine and Tea is the bible we need

They could have seen it come
that he'll break out tonight
but is it worth the fight?
Cause all the tears were torn,
no he can't get along
are you ready?
