Pointless Drinking Lyrics - Amy Lavere

Pointless drinking 

Where does it end where to begin 

Who are you friends, who are you foes 

You'll never know as long as you go 

Pointless drinking 

Till it seems like they're all speaking poorly in Spanish 

Who do you wish would totally vanish 

And all you can do 

I'm not an actor but I act like I am 

I really am awful but I act like I'm not 

Pretending my days hold the value of gold 

But they only hold one thing and it's all that I've got 

Pointless drinking 

Keeping my healthy dose of resentment 

Keeping me waking with an empty repentance 

Keeping me broke, broke as a joke 

Pointless drinking 

Took all the days that I should have felt young 

Took all the joy from the songs I have sung 

Took me awhile, took me awhile 

Well I'm not a hater, I love you all so 

But I look at myself and I don't really know 

Can I dig myself out of the wreck of my past 

Will I ever unharden and stop showing my ass 

Will those eternal bartenders ever stop filling this half-empty glass 

Pointless drinking 

Hate the effect, even more hate the cause 

Hate to admit that I'm tragically flawed 

I would keep going but let's pause for the cause 

Pointless drinking 

Why do you do it, you always go through it 

You drink to forget all the times you blew it 

Think everyone knows, think everyone cares 

Pointless drinking 

Keeping you drunk on your dreams of great heights 

From the bottom to the top back down overnight 

You know it's not right, you know it's not right 

Pointless drinking 

It's just the one thing you're overachieving 

Feels like you never will stop believing 

That you'll never win, you'll never win
