Another shot

I’m drunk again
What else to say?
I do it every single day
Down a shot
Then another few
I don’t have a problem
Yes- it’s true!
But my head is spinning
And my body’s numb
Trying to block out
What’s been done
And I’ve made a fool
Out of myself
I always do that
But can you hear my call?
I need to escape
From the life I know
I want to be happy
Because I’m always low
So I’ll smoke
I’ll drink
Then in remorse
I’ll think
About the path I’m heading down
My head hung low
A solemn frown
Beneath the covers
Is where I belong
In my own little world
Where I do not purge
Or harm myself
Though I hate myself
I hate what I do
I want to be happy
And not love you
I think I’ll have another shot…

I feel what you feel. I’ve been down for the past couple of days myself.
