Just one sip, here we go
It’s been a long day, it’s been toiled away
You hid it all day long,

One more sip
Put on that mask, let’s run away
Where you can lose yourself..

Have another swig friend
The pain is just underneath
It wants out, son, better push it back down

Get me another one,
Their faces haunt you,
Memories that scarred you

Ah, just one more
I can see it now, the light fading
The darkness.. it’s right there boy

Finish this one, you won’t remember
Clean the slate, embrace the nothingness
Welcome the silence...
