It's twelve o'clock 
and it's another drinking night.

Drowned in whiskey

without a word, without a fight.
I lay in my half-empty bed

like a poor lovesick fool.

Twisting and turning with sorrow,

why is the world so cruel?

It's one o'clock

and I'm high once again.

Dizzy and laughing 

with the blunt laying next to my gin.

This intoxication isn't helping me

cause the memories won't fade.

It's not burning away with the ashes

until another day.

It's two o'clock

and there's a knife in my hand.

I stand in the mirror

staring at the man.

That taunting feeling is back

laughing and teasing me

at the things that I lack.

It's three o'clock

and there's a body on my floor.
Laying there helpless
next to the bathroom door.

Crimson creeping out of it's neck
still with the memories of Vegas skies.

Wish I could say it wasn't so

wish my soul hadn't died.
