Harmony Green's blog! This blog highlights the music and poetic, liquid lyrics of Dan Fogelberg. I listen to a shuffled song on my iPod and write an inspired piece from that. The song is listed under 'labels' at the bottom of each entry. Enjoy!

The Bottle and The Bag
His life was stuck in a bottle
Her life was stuck in a bag
They were stuck in an addiction
She took a gun one night
fired not, but wished she had
Until the day she wanted to live again
The road to recovery is long
However, the road must be walked here
or you won't be here very long
"You hit your bottom
when you quit diggin"
She told me
And I knew she was right
and in that moment, that very moment
I knew she was going to be all right
He, so wise in his ways of the Earth
She knew he'd be fine once he
got some sun, air and water
Stuck no more....climbing out
Ropes held by friends on the outside
The bottle and bag shall lose the battle
and
the
war
