I could hear my name being called above the noise I went and sat with my anxiety Over by the exit, just in case We took shots for every possible negative outcome that could arise from this evening's outing Before I could collect my thoughts, see how I was feeling I was led over to the corner Where my depression was sitting all alone under a table We took shots for every reason no one would miss us when we're gone Once the alcohol soaked in, they became silent And it's funny to me to think that the only reason I drink with them Is simply because it's the only time I can pretend they aren't there

keep your friends close and take your enemies to your parents liquor cabinet
I could hear my name being called above the noise I went and sat with my anxiety Over by the exit, just in case We took shots for every possible negative outcome that could arise from this evening's outing Before I could collect my thoughts, see how I was feeling I was led over to the corner Where my depression was sitting all alone under a table We took shots for every reason no one would miss us when we're gone Once the alcohol soaked in, they became silent And it's funny to me to think that the only reason I drink with them Is simply because it's the only time I can pretend they aren't there
