Alcohol & Tears

by heaven-leigh

I'll get so damn drunk on senseless time I'll get drunk on all the crime Hiding bottles in drawers and desks Smoking underneath stairs to get rid of pesks Dealing in parks and day-cares Shooting guns in pairs Dried-up tears And dead years Drugs laced around drinks Falling down in skating rinks Broken skin, hoping to numb the pain Everyone talks while thoughts go down the drain Taking forever to let it out Living forever in this drought Making drugs in someone else's backyard Abusing children while praying hard Gambling high while money is low Crushing heads just to make a show Molding young minds just to get cash Taking happiness and turning it all to ash. But we live like it's alright Because soon everything is going to die.... Alcohol take the pain of the tears away Tears take away all the bad days Drunken nights full of unnecessary tears Oh my, oh my. oh my. Maybe I will get drunk again...
