A little anger, please.

Drink up your cup of lonely,
    and pour a glass of wine.
Pick up the phone, you'll be surprised
    if someone's on the other line.

Dial once
    for empty mornings.
And again
    for faded beams.
Press 2, to leave a message, to wish her peaceful dreams.

Dial once
    for books and mirrors.
And again
    for Friday nights.
Press 2, to leave a message, to regret your many fights.

Drink up your cup of lonely,
    and pour a glass of wine.
Hang up the phone, you aren't surprised
    no one's on the other line.

Dial once
    she's in the shower.
Dial once
    she isn't home.
Dial one more time, with hope in hand.
    But no one's on the phone.

So drain your cup of sorrow,
    and lift yourself with ease.
"Bartender, I want something different.
        A little anger, please."

Tired of loneliness, and missing someone never there, our narrator seek solace where he can find it, hoping the sweetness of anger will wash away the memories of conversations never had.
