[Verse 1]

Ever been rock-bottom

At the bottom of a bottle?

And you're just all by yourself

Like you got a million reasons

To grab a forty and squeeze it

Just to put an end to this hell

[Pre-Chorus]

It only numbs the pain

I'll tell you what it takes

[Chorus]

It takes the soul from your body

Rips your heart out your chest

Makes you feel like you're nothin'

But just a waste of breath

You don't wanna see the sun tomorrow

Don't wanna face another day

Suddenly, your life goes down the drain

Yeah, that's what it takes

[Verse 2]

There's a silver-tongued devil

Tellin' me that I'll never

Make it out the hole that I'm in

I'm runnin' outta options

Once it starts, I can't stop it

It's just a means to an end

[Pre-Chorus]

It only numbs the pain

[Chorus]

It takes the soul from your body

Rips your heart out your chest

Makes you feel like you're nothin'

But just a waste of breath

You don't wanna see the sun tomorrow

Don't wanna face another day

Suddenly, your life goes down the drain

Yeah, that's what it takes

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus]

It only numbs the pain

I'll tell you what it takes

[Chorus]

It takes the soul out your body

The heart out your chest

Makes you feel like you're nothin'

But just a waste of breath

You don't wanna see the sun tomorrow

Don't wanna face another day

Suddenly, your life goes down the drain

Yeah, that's what it takes
