Another day of life by the drop, I pray to the lord, help me stop I awake in pain, feeling shame knowing soon again, I'll play the game For the brief second with myself, before I walk over to that shelf I stop & think of all the things I do, & the people I hurt while drinking ***** I grip the bottle o' so tight, I won't let go until the night All these thoughts rush through my head, loves & pride & things I once said I know it's from the former me, the one that can no longer be It hits me hard, I cannot cope, so drunk until I start to choke Day to day, I live like this High to high & kiss to kiss I hope one day, the drunk will let me out & never again will I drink & shout Until that time, I'll drown & hate I just hope that's not my final fate
