Sitting there all by yourself
With too much time to think
Emotions pouring over you
That make you want to drink
Drown out all these feelings now
Then pay for it tomorrow
Wondering just how much you'll need
To drown out all this sorrow
I'll just have a beer or 2
Enough to ease my mind
There's nothing wrong with a couple drinks
To help someone unwind
Until that beer, turns into 10
And you don't know, where you are
Then you think, you're invincible
And you climb into your car
You think that, you're doing great
But you're all over the road
And as, you're being hauled off to jail
You'll wish you weren't so bold
Cause when you wake up, behind those bars
And find out, just what you did
You'll realize, all those drinks you had
Took the life, of someones kid
And all the sorrow, and guilt you feel
Won't change, what you have done
Your selfishness, became a bullet
And alcohol, the gun
Now your life, is ruined forever
And you'll have, plenty of time to think
What if I, just talked to someone
Instead of deciding, to drink?
