Alcoholia

Lyrics

(Strophe 1)
I met her on a Friday, the neon lights so dim,
She wore a velvet shadow, and the room began to spin.
Her voice, a smoky whisper, pulled me like the tide,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, she caught me, couldn’t run, couldn’t hide.
She danced with a danger that I couldn’t resist,
Each move a temptation, sealed with a kiss.
She lit a fire in me, a spark I’d never known,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, she claimed me, now I’m all alone.

(Instrumental Refrain)


(Strophe 2)
Her love was a bottle, her touch was a glass,
I drank her in deeply, couldn’t let her pass.
Each night I craved her, a fever in my veins,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you taught me pleasure and pain.
She whispered my name like a siren’s song,
Told me, “Stay with me, honey, you’ll never go wrong.”
But the mornings were empty, the truth came in waves,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, she led me to my grave.

(Refrain)
Ol’ Holly ya, you take me high,
But every taste is a bitter lie.
You hold me close, but you break me down,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you’re the devil in this town.


(Solo)


(Bridge)
She calls me closer, a siren's cry,
One more taste, and I’ll say goodbye.


(Strophe 3)
Now I’m staring at the bottom, the last drop in the glass,
Her love’s a cruel echo of a time that’s passed.
My hands, they are trembling, my body feels cold,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you’re a poison I hold.
She’s left me in pieces, no more soul to mend,
Her kiss is a curse, my beginning and end.
I gave her my heart, she left me to bleed,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you’re my darkest need.

(Refrain)
Ol’ Holly ya, you take me high,
But every taste is a bitter lie.
You hold me close, but you break me down,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you’re the devil in this town.
Ol’ Holly ya, you tore me apart,
Left nothing but ashes where once was a heart.
You held me close, but you burned me raw,
Ol’ Holly, yeah, you’re the devil I saw.
