They call it the devils water
I call it my best friend
They say I drink too much
but really I just think too much
And my best friend,
makes me forget it all
I hate that I love him
that I care so much
even though he broke me
I used to be fine
I used to be able to sleep
alone and on my own
but now I lay awake
thinking of why me
why do terrible things
always happen to me
my first love was a fraud
he was a married man
a man with a daughter
a man with no morals
a man who left me dead
a man who incited fear
a man who lied
a man who is no man
a man who destroyed me
And for a few hours
my best friend
she helps me to forget
and she's the only one
the only one who can
and the only one
who can help me
please help
