Fade to Black

I got a bottle of vodka.
Helping me drown my sorrow.
I just don't care anymore.
If I live to see tomorrow.

All of life’s pressures.
Are starting to take their toll.
Just can't seem to get a grip.
I feel I am losing my control.

I can feel myself falling.
Into what seems like a bottomless pit.
No matter how hard I try.
There seems no way out of it.

Makes no difference what I do or say.
I just can't seem to win.
Maybe I should face the facts.
And just give in.

So I guess this my last goodbye.
I have reached the point of no turning back.
The end has finally arrived.
Fade to black.



 Love will be the end of us...
