I sit alone staring at the clock on the wall
asking myself if it's too late to call
another shot of Jack I know this ain't right
but it's the only thing that helps me sleep at night

memories of you dance around in my head
times of laying with you all day in bed
almost all gone I tip the last of it up
then sit staring at the empty cup

I look around for anything to make me forget
but it seems the more I drink the less drunk I get
So I drink you away with Whiskey and beer
Hoping no body will see me here

it would only hurt them to see me this way
trying to drink all my pain away
they tell me it's wrong and I agree
I really don't like whats happening to me

I look in the mirror it's the worst sight i've seen
every one knows it's the worst that i've been
I know the more I have the more it kills
and finally i'm done with drinking for thrills

I know I have to change and get yout outta my mind
as much as I don't want to I need to leave you behind
So I pour the last of the bottle down the drain
and I take one step closer to dealing with my pain.

Kate- Thank you so much, I'll be strong if I can't do it for myself I'll do it for everyone else

Leah- thank you for your kind reply, I know I shouldn't turn to drinking... but I am definately getting better at dealing with my pain in other ways.
