And so, I raised another glass
Cheers mates, I'd say for the sixth time today
Another glass down
The once sharp, sour, thick, gross flavor
Becomes warm as I guzzle down more
The feeling becomes fuzzy
As the cool liquid falls down my throat
Another glass down
One more to goI raise glass after glass
Smiling with each one that passed
I talked, I talked
But with another glass in my hands
I dream, I dream
Another glass meets my grasp
I believe, I believe
I shatter the next glass, holding it too tight
Finding myself within a bar fightMy future slipping from my grasp
As I grab another glassAnother glass down
And one more to go.
