Cover art for Happiness lyrics by Three Days Grace

surely when he says THE bottle he means alcohol..... if it was pills , which usually come in slides and not a little bottle these days, he would say A bottle? i think ppl are trying to read too much into it

@staley69 No, it is about pills. Adam (the lead singer when this song was released, writer of the song) was addicted to oxycontin, which is a pill. I take medicine because i am ADHD & i get pills in a bottle.
