I've never been so fragile As the night you went away After all of the broken promises You couldn't afford to stay. I didn't look into your eyes, I didn't even say goodbye Didn't have the strength For tyhe first time in years I was sober Just long enough to hear that it was over Needing a drink And ready to break But the liquer was gone Alone and in pain That was how I lost you after all I clipped your wings And you let me fall Silent I was, all the way down Didn't cry Just drank enough to drown. Never felt that fragiel before Never been so ready to die Couldn't have taken any more than that I wouldn't even have said goodbye... Drinkin in the dark alone Nothingness spinnin round A man with an addiction All the way down... A sigh my silent roar of pain A drunken vow that never again I loved you once I love you still Innocent hands, marred with the kill A vile man reekign of whiskey Alone and drunk ever since you've left me The drink's what I've got, peace of mind in a bottle, Jack's my only friend and thanks to liquid courage I'll never be that frail again. Coming of age is a tragedy, this I hold to be self evident. |

I thought that I lost someone very dear to me, to the arms of another. I found solice in the drink. But it really is not the best place to find it. |
