Another Bottle Down
Asking Alexandria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm okay with this, that I'll be on my own again
Until the day I die which shouldn't be that long
So I'll just do what I do and make the most of it
I won't fall down again
My heart's now dead and gone
And I'm still breathing
Oh fuck this is fun I just can't believe I didn't find this before
To just indulge even if it kills me
Who gives a fuck if we die
Another bottle down
You should really try it sometime
'Cause it feels so good
Without a care if a heart gets broken
You'll all learn in the end that there's a better way
Baby move in closer, you couldn't hurt me if you tried
I won't fall down again
My heart's now dead and gone
And I'm still breathing
I made it out alive
Take a seat my dear
Make yourself comfortable this could take a while
Crack another, dear
I can't see now and I wouldn't change a thing
Life should burn with such a fucking flame
If not you've only got yourself to blame
The song Another Bottle Down by Asking Alexandria expresses a desire to escape from reality through alcohol and partying. The lyrics underline the singer's weariness with their current situation and their choice to lead a life of extreme hedonism. The first verse emphasizes how the singer doesn't want to return to their old ways and is content with being alone as long as they can live their life the way they want. The lyrics also hint at a possible premature death, suggesting that the singer knows that their lifestyle is not sustainable.
The chorus of the song repeats the idea that the singer won't fall down (meaning succumb to addiction) again because their heart is already "dead and gone." Yet, they express a desire to live life to the fullest, and the song conveys a sense of carelessness and disregard for the consequences of one's actions. The bridge of the song invites the listener to join in the fun and indulge in partying and alcohol consumption without worrying about getting hurt or hurting others.
Overall, the song appears to celebrate a self-destructive way of life that can be appealing to some people who are struggling with mental health issues or looking for escapism. However, the song also acknowledges that this can be an ultimately damaging way of life, warning that life should burn with a flame but not consume you entirely.
