Here it is again, my daily dose of medicine.

My orchestra of miniature violins.

Wishing that these bottles could refill themselves cause’ there’s no more free drinks in hell.

But the alcohol won’t burn for long when all my wounds are gone.

And I'm so sick of writing songs that creatively hide everything I’ve done wrong, Until you’re gone.
The singer is tired of hiding his flaws and wrongdoings and finding ways to conceal them in his music, despite it being a therapeutic outlet for him. He wishes he could express everything he's done wrong, but he's waiting for someone to leave his life before he does so.

And I'm trying so hard to be upset, but it's hard when I got no hard place to be between, sitting on this rock with you doing what I’m supposed to.

We’ll cheers until our bottles break over all the future mistakes that we’ll make.

So let’s go drink some more mistakes.

And would you stand by all those things you said with a loaded gun stuck to your head?

Well go ahead, say them again.

Well go ahead and put your money where your mouth is.

Spray your bank account across these walls, soak the floors and doors with change, spraying oil from your veins, knowing that you died in vain, knowing that I stayed the same, knowing that I quit this game and cashed in your remains.
The singer's imagery has escalated to extreme violence where he is encouraging the person to spray their bank account all over the room and spill their blood and organs to show they died without accomplishing anything.
