Drunk

I've been drinking myself dumb,

And as drunk as I am, I still haven't been able to numb the person I am,

And I've been drinking since I've seen the sun.

I guess I can't numb myself anymore,

I've done it too much.

And with how drunk I am,

I'm even more depressed than I was.


I'm holding my beer,

Now I've tossed it and I hear the glass crash down on the floor.

The sound reminds me of myself,

Because I too, am shattered beyond all belief.

Now I am crying,

Because I see no sign of relief.

And I'm hoping tonight I'll die,

But I don't want to die personally.


I don't have the guts to end my life willingly,

So I just continue to hope,

And at times I reread words I once wrote,

That tells myself I can get out of this moat,

But it's so deep, and I can't swim any more than I can float.


Tonight I hope this drink kills me,

So I can finally rid myself of this pain.

My head hurts,

But not quite as much as my vein.

And if I die, all my dreams would die in vain,

But I feel like they've already died long ago,

I just haven't visited their grave.

Maybe if I die I'll be buried with them,

Maybe then, it'll all be O.K.

But these are just drunk thoughts,

I know they won't,

And I know it'll never be O.K.
