taking shots of whiskey instead of bullets,
i’ll wake up in the morning with a hole in my heart, but not through my chest.
bleeding out in the form of words I’ll soon forget, words I’ll come to regret. my dress stained only with spilled liquor and the hands of people I’ve never met.
my world is spinning so I’ll make my head match. I’ll dance until the lights go on, and my vision goes black. what kind of life is that? what kind of life is that.
ill make the first move, *** and coke - actually, make that two. lead me to the dance floor, sway back and forth - no longer in my hands, my fate is in the glass.
one day I’ll find the life I’ve been chasing. kitchen dancing and movie nights, children laughing, alone time. the bottom of this bottle won’t bring me home, but I keep chasing. I keep chasing.
