Im tired of the painful memories
It’s too hard to think
So to drown out the memories
I’ll take another drink

Parents fighting
Mom pouring ***** down the sink
Watching it as a child was hard to cope
I’ll take another drink

Smokin, drinking, and skipping school
Trying hard not to think
About the dysfunction of my life
I’ll take another drink

I met someone when I was young
With his consistent pry and just a wink
Selling drugs and stealing cars
I’ll have another drink

Getting pregnant at sixteen
My life changed in a blink
Living on welfare; living in constant fear
I’ll take another drink

I lost my mom to cancer
I was at the edge of my brink
So much turmoil running in my mind
I’ll take another drink
