They say you shouldn't drink your feelings away don't they?
Well I'm trying my damnedest, and it's not working.
I try to drink you off my mind like those old country songs.
I try to drink myself to sleep hoping I don't dream of you.
Neither work
The drunker I get the more space you take in my head
I fear the sleep will never come
My decade long battle with the insomnia that consumes my mind
Only seems amplified with you stuck in it
What am I to do?
I guess I'll drink some more, and maybe morning won't come to find me.
