Please come back to me It was the bottle not me. I am better now can't you see? It was the bottle, never me. You didn't have to take the pills I have already healed all the ills. So our life had a few spills.... I have already healed all the ills. Why did you have to die? Why didn't you continue to try? I fixed it all, I didn't lie. Why didn't you continue to try? I have never believed in fate: There is no such thing as "too late" It was only the bottle you learned to hate; There is no such thing as "too late". So what if I gave you pain for years It was only the bottle causing tears. It was never me fulfilling your fears It was only the bottle causing tears. Please come back to me It was the bottle not me. I am cured now can't you see? It was the bottle... never ME!
