It's three in the afternoon, Am at my fourth bottle of ***** But don't you dare call me an alcoholic! I look out my window to the street, The sun's rays penetrating my pupils, Much to my disgust. I see two young lovers hand in hand, If only they knew what heartbreak was. I see some young kids playing on the street, If only they knew the turmoils of adulthood. I see a very young man singing happily, If only he knew the horrors of life awaiting him. I grinned and sneered, As I saw the dark path thay lay ahead for everyone. "Fools!", I called them. They must lack common sense, Out of touch with reality. Surely they weren't reading the news, Or checking the economic state of the country. I was once stupid like them, But I became wise after losing all hope, And getting in touch with reality. Am at my fifth ***** now, My liver is failing, the Doctor says... But I don't care! We will all die anyway. If there is light at the end of the tunnel, Then I must be heading towards the beginning. You can call me hateful, I call me realistic.

Musings of A hateful Man
It's three in the afternoon, Am at my fourth bottle of ***** But don't you dare call me an alcoholic! I look out my window to the street, The sun's rays penetrating my pupils, Much to my disgust. I see two young lovers hand in hand, If only they knew what heartbreak was. I see some young kids playing on the street, If only they knew the turmoils of adulthood. I see a very young man singing happily, If only he knew the horrors of life awaiting him. I grinned and sneered, As I saw the dark path thay lay ahead for everyone. "Fools!", I called them. They must lack common sense, Out of touch with reality. Surely they weren't reading the news, Or checking the economic state of the country. I was once stupid like them, But I became wise after losing all hope, And getting in touch with reality. Am at my fifth ***** now, My liver is failing, the Doctor says... But I don't care! We will all die anyway. If there is light at the end of the tunnel, Then I must be heading towards the beginning. You can call me hateful, I call me realistic.
