[Intro] [Sequenced synth bassline starts - hypnotic and dry] [Sharp electronic clap on every second beat] [Hook] [Vocals: Rhythmic, monotone whisper] Everything’s fine… everything’s fine… [Verse 1] [Vocals: Rapid fire, rhythmic delivery, almost spoken] They were all there — the moment was too good to waste, Refuse? They laughed — said I’d lose my pride and my place, They poured me a drink, I was short on hope, So I pulled up a chair at the end of their rope, [Chorus] [Music: Heavy synth pads enter - Intense and driving] One more drink — yeah I know that’s not nothing, Don’t you worry, everything’s fine, I’m still standing, I can slow down, I can quit when I choose, Otherwise I’ve got nothing left to lose! [Verse 2] [Drums become more aggressive, hi-hats cutting through] You just have to know which drink is the last, Or the one before that — or it all falls too fast, One step from the edge, then the world spins around, And tomorrow I’ll crawl back into town. [Chorus] One more drink — yeah I know that’s not nothing, Don’t you worry, everything’s fine, I’m still standing, I can slow down, I can quit when I choose, Otherwise I’ve got nothing left to lose! [Bridge] [Beat drops out - Only a haunting synth arpeggio] I’ve lost my license, my woman is gone, The bottle’s the only thing keeping me going, I enjoy for a moment the numbness it brings, Before real life returns with its sting, [Hook] [Vocals building up in volume] Everything’s fine… everything’s fine… [Chorus] [Full electronic power - Anthemic and dark] One more drink — yeah I know that’s not nothing, Don’t you worry, everything’s fine, I’m still standing, I can slow down, I can quit when I choose, Otherwise I’ve got nothing left to lose! [Outro] [Rhythmic synth-bass only] Drink or not drink? Have or have none? To be or not be — I look like no one, My face turns pale, my body gives in, The mirror stares back and quietly says: [Spoken Outro] [Voice: Intimate, dry, no effects] “Only you can find the way out… at the edge of the night…” [Hook] [Sudden cut on the last word] Everything’s fine… everything’s fine… [End]
