Two bottles down But I can still smell my fear Open another one, for myself to drown But my sinking ship is vivid and clear Grind something familiar that I haven't tasted for years Fire up my useless lighter that I've been keeping near I just want to be lost in a different way Stop being in reality for a second Let my mind wander and stray Taste the colors and let it linger down my throat Swim away from my self despair and loathe I know this wouldn't last I hope this would last

One of those hours
Two bottles down But I can still smell my fear Open another one, for myself to drown But my sinking ship is vivid and clear Grind something familiar that I haven't tasted for years Fire up my useless lighter that I've been keeping near I just want to be lost in a different way Stop being in reality for a second Let my mind wander and stray Taste the colors and let it linger down my throat Swim away from my self despair and loathe I know this wouldn't last I hope this would last
