A repeated regret
In the past I've made mistakes
All those risks I just had to take
To all my problems there's one simple answer
Drink it away, the cure for my cancer

All these things I want to forget
Take it all back, have no regrets
Maybe I shouldn't, there's a price to pay
But what do I do? I drink it away

Trouble I cause, when I pick up a beer
What do I care, I have no fear
But then who arrives? Pain and Strife
That's when I remember, I'm drinking away my life
