Bartenders Observations

A glass a shot A drink of beer The lonely lost hearts That gather here The dim and the dark Hide the shame on their face Their minds held captive In a more distant place A song brings about A more distant pain Lost loves and the like Are always to blame Finding comfort in those That think much alike Taking last call Dying more every night The prison their thoughts A most lonely place The pain in their heart That time can't erase Going it alone Each shift its more clear The searching lost soul That's imprisoned here Unable to find A cure for the loss For living this way He's paying the cost So don't look away If we meet in this place Go on with your life Don't live my mistake
