Gin Blossoms - Lost Horizons

Written by the late Doug Hopkins, it highlights his issue with alcoholism that would ultimately lead to his suicide but to a happy, fast-tempo jangley sound the Gin Blossoms would become known for.

"The last horizons I could see are now resigned to memories
I never thought I'd still be here today
Drink enough of anything to make myself look new again
Drunk drunk drunk in the gardens and the graves"
