A song I wrote
VERSE 1:

We had always been friends, always together
But when you started to drink, the bond between us was severed
I thought that you knew you could come to me, in times of pain or uncertainty
But you turned to alcohol to take your pain away, your whole life ahead
Is slipping away

CHORUS:

Your life is full of empty bottles and broken dreams
Alcohol proof happiness evades you it seems
You had a plan for a perfect future
But you threw it all down when you picked up that glass

VERSE 2:

You got so lost and caught up in drinking away
Any unwanted feelings that you came to face
You never realized, I was not around
I left you when you let your future burn down

CHORUS:

Your life is full of empty bottles and broken dreams
Alcohol proof happiness evades you it seems
You had a plan for a perfect future
But you threw it all down when you picked up that glass

And drank away your tears, drank away your pain
Drank your life away again and again

CHORUS:

Your life is full of empty bottles and broken dreams
Alcohol proof happiness evades you it seems
You had a plan for a perfect future
But you threw it all down when you picked up that glass

CHORUS:

Please rid your life of empty bottles and broken dreams
Alcohol proof happiness is all that you need
You still can have the chance for that perfect future
If you'd just push away that glass, at last, and stay sober for me
Please stay sober for me
