Drink and Drink to numb the pain

That awful everyday feeling 

Always goes away


Drink and Drink to drown out the thoughts

Even when they might seem like they are gone

They're really not.


Drink and Drink so I don't have to act mature

I can't fake anything

I can't take it anymore


So you want me to stop?

You've got to get through me first

Because as long as I live

I'll drink away my hurt.
