Anything Over Ice
Chasing Solace in Ice: Fallon Lee's Melodic Reflections
Lyrics
Still got the stamps from last nights bar hop
Still holding onto memories of the previous night's bar hopping.
Been down this road to many times
Expressing familiarity with a repetitive and perhaps challenging life situation.
I should know the answers to my problems
Acknowledging that solutions to personal issues shouldn't come from alcohol, like whisky or wine.
Wouldn't come from whisky or the wine
Emphasizing the ineffectiveness of relying on alcoholic beverages for problem-solving.
But I bet you'll see me out there
Anticipating being present at the same location in the future.
In that same ol chair next Friday night
Describing a predictable routine, sitting in the same chair at a bar every Friday night.
And I bet they never noticed
Suggesting that others at the bar may not pay attention to the speaker's actions.
I'll drink anything over ice
Expressing a willingness to consume any drink served over ice.
Pick myself back up the next day
Committing to recovering from the previous night's experiences and moving forward.
Shaking off the night before
Physically and emotionally recovering from the effects of the previous night.
Then I'll struggle through the work week
Facing the challenges of the workweek after a night of drinking.
Just to knock down that bar door
Highlighting a persistent pattern of returning to the bar after a week of work.
But I bet you'll see me out there
Reiterating the speaker's presence at the bar every Friday night.
In that same ol chair next Friday night
Continuing the depiction of a repetitive scene in the same chair.
Ya I bet they never notice
Suggesting that others at the bar may still be unaware of the speaker's actions.
I'll drink anything over ice
Reaffirming the preference for any drink served over ice.
I kno that this can't last forever
Acknowledging the impermanence of the current lifestyle and its consequences.
Drinking alone into the night
Admitting to drinking alone late into the night.
I could use good conversation
Expressing a desire for meaningful conversation but considering it too costly.
But it just ain't worth the price
Stating that the potential benefits of conversation do not outweigh the associated price.
But I bet you'll see me out there
Anticipating continued presence at the bar in the future.
In that same ol chair next Friday night
Reiterating the speaker's regular appearance in the same chair on Friday nights.
And I bet they never notice
Suggesting that others at the bar may still not notice the speaker's behavior.
I'll drink anything over ice
Reaffirming the speaker's willingness to consume any drink served over ice.
Ya I guess they'll never notice
Speculating that others may never realize the speaker's preferences.
I'll drink anything over ice
Reiterating the speaker's inclination to drink any beverage over ice.
