Dedicated to my friend Penny who likes to get drunk
The pain that I put myself through,
Can't compare to my love for you.
Tearing open my bleeding scars,
Drinking in overpriced bars.

I don't care for my breaking back,
Enthusiasm for life I lack.
Making myself think I am low
Alcohol is the only way to go.

Destruction reigns inside my heart.
Life just seems to fall apart.
There's nothing more that I can do
I'm addicted to drinking you

At first you took the pain away.
But now I know you're here to stay.
Please go away bottle of drink
Give me one last chance to think.

I've fallen down across the floor
I don't love you anymore
Look at me lying there dead
Because you made me fuzzy in the head.
