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
