Do you know why I got so mad that night. I was an hour away with my family and in that moment, you had me. You had me in a place that I told myself I would never end up again, and there I was standing in that insanity once more.

Story of my life really. She calls and I come running. Just like clockwork. You called that night, and I ran. But no signs of a wolf when I got there. Just a girl claiming she wanted to see me. How could I be mad at that? Easily when I consider what was left to save you from boredom. Hardly at all, when I remember how you saved me from drowning just days before.

I didn't mean to lead you on. Its just that we found ourselves in the same place that night, and when the bourbon wasn't enough anymore we found comfort in each others arms. Together we forged a life raft. For awhile kept each other alive as we drifted in sorrow on a sea of hard liquor. I thought we found the shore together but maybe land didn't agree with your legs or it was the wrong island altogether.

Either way I Like it here, and i'm trying to make it work. So in the future if your bored call someone else. If you need a good distraction, find it anywhere else. If you do find yourself in trouble and no one else picks up. Dial my line, you know ill be running.
