Love Drunk

Love drunk, though it’s not really love but,

I’m likin’ the way I feel when you’ve got me all hyped up but

This isn’t leading anywhere but a hangover

There’s no layover, it’s just game over

And I’m late in figuring out I put too much stock in your character

When I could have allocated skill points to wisdom and intelligence

Stead I’m stuck in an excuse for a relationship with you trying to find the relevance



Still throwin’ back bottles of cheap like, worst kind

Doesn’t even come in a box like wine

Though my mind’s wrapped around the fact that I’m over you

My heart hesitates to be unkind

Feel like every time we meet I’m paying the universe a fine

It’s taxing to be with you even when you’ve asked me nicely

So stuck in this rut that it’s graduated to a rabbit hole

Making me wish I had a place to go back to that I could call home

Even then though your thoughts follow me through the phone

Don’t even know why I bother to answer anymore



Stuck in the habit

Secretly sick and tired of the space in my life you inhabit

When you asked I just went along with

I keep counting the days, trying to figure out how long I have to stay with

Wish I could tell you there was never anything there to begin with



Love drunk sans love

Leaves me drunk

Destined for the hangover

Nothing good’s coming so why bother to stay over

If I had started with pills I could take the dose, then go over

The only way out of this is to drink more

But this existence tastes bad cuz nothing’s mixed right

You keep wishing I’d miss you when you say goodbye

But I don’t even care enough about this to start a fight



So I ask myself why I’m still drinking?
