Cover art for Outside This Bar lyrics by American Music Club

Staggering and beautiful. It sounds like an anthem for all the drinkers out there; he's musing in his intoxication, "How would any of us manage to struggle through life if we didn't have this bar?" To him, the world outside the bar doesn't hold as much value as what's in it. The idea of abandoning it sends him into terror. It's his place of comfort.
