I woke up on the floor again
My bottle of Merlo my only friend
I didn’t even spill a drop
Take a swig fast, need to hit that spot

How did I get here?
I don’t mean the floor
How did I get stuck in this life I deplore?

I crawl back to my bed
I’m too weak to climb in
My body is shaking, I’m crawling out of my skin

I sit on the floor, a horrific site
Lifting the bottle with all my might
I can’t stand up
I can’t lie down
I can’t even make a single sound

Is this finally the end for me
I cannot think, I cannot see

I’m not sure if I am dead yet
But if I’m not today
Tomorrow’s a safe bet

There is something wrong inside my head,
keeping me prisoner in my bed
The wounds are deep,
some small, some large
I see no blood,
at least so far
I grab a smoke,
my only friend...
Smoke fills the room
could this be the end?
The alarm goes off
my head starts to pound
Louder and Louder...
I can't bear the sound!

I crawl deeper beneath the blankets
covering my head
I have no thought at all to escape from my bed

I lay here hiding, but hiding from what?

Smoke fills the room, I'm the only one here...
Soon it'll be over
my pain and my fear...

— The End —
