- lyrics
- flash in a bottle pass it around
your sons and daughters will lay it down
careful to let it not touch the ground
flash in a bottle pass it around
I left the morning you got the call
father was breaking down in the hall
your sister cried like she’d never done before—
flash in a bottle broken and torn
he was a fighter making the rounds
taken to slaughter without a sound
never was angered when they ran him out of town
flash in a bottle hitting the ground
she moves her lips as she’s reading the note
he wrote that morn in the words of a poet:
‘I bid you farewell though I know not where I’m going,
like a flash in a bottle left and alone.’
flash in a bottle don’t let us down
give us no warning where you are bound
set like a sun that’s gently laying down
flash in a bottle— broken but proud
