A boozy late night fight
They argue ’bout who’s right
No winners here it’s
Loser take all
And it’s the mirror image
Of yesterday’s scrimmage
When Daddy punched a
Hole through the wall
They say for what it’s worth
Nobody got hurt
But what about
That kid down the hall?
Chorus:
Start again
This doesn’t have to be
The way it ends.
Sometimes rock bottom
Can be better than a friend
‘Cause it’s a place where
You can start again
She sits in jail
Wonderin’ how she failed
As she slowly
Falls apart inside
But she brought her anger with her
And like a shattered mirror
The shards cut
Like a knife
So she blames her mother
And half a dozen others
For this train wreck
That she calls her life
Chorus:
Start again
This doesn’t have to be the way it ends.
Sometimes rock bottom
Can be better than a friend
‘Cause it’s a place where you can
Start again
A bottle of chianti
A game of penny ante
An aching head
Not a nickle to his name
His daily pennance
Is the mirror’s grimace
Face to face
No one else to blame
So he takes a swallow
From a brand new bottle
Back to bed
With a mouth full of shame
Chorus:
Start again
This doesn’t have to be the way it ends.
Sometimes rock bottom
Can be better than a friend
‘Cause it’s a place where you can
Start again
Yeah it’s a place where you can
Start again
