I tried to compare what I thought it was doing for me with what it actually did to me. |
You took me to my highest Because I was the shiest I've shared my tears with you When I thought my life was through I reached out for your hand When I did not understand I told you my greatest fear How I wanted to disappear Alcohol was my greatest friend When I pushed everyone away It made me feel so safe inside When I was all alone Alcohol was my greatest foe When it made the monster return I couldn't contain the demon in me Then I lost all control You pretended to listen As you disguised your vision You summoned the demon in me But you wouldn't let me see All the hurt that you created So I thought the pain had faded But you made me fear tomorrow Until I drank away the sorrow Alcohol was my greatest friend When I pushed everyone away It made me feel so safe inside When I was all alone Alcohol was my greatest foe When it made the monster return I couldn't contain the demon in me Then I lost all control When I couldn't make the monster die I stopped and wondered why When I looked in the mirror I seemed to forget my fear I knew that beast wasn't me So I set myself free Now that monster is dead And I found my own head Alcohol was my greatest friend When I pushed everyone away It made me feel so safe inside When I was all alone Alcohol was my greatest foe When it made the monster return I couldn't contain the demon in me Then I lost all control |
