Sitting in the dark This pounding in my heart I need a release To put me at ease I crack open the bottle My heart at full throttle I'll drink 'til I can't walk Maybe 'til I can't talk Let it rush to my brain So I can feel the gain An easy feeling The joy it is bringing I drink 'til I see clouds I drink 'til I pass out Then I wake the next day Sober, when life is dull and grey Reality hits me right in the face At such a fast and dangerous pace I don't know what to do or think All I know, is I need another drink
