Today I am drunk, yet I am sober,
I have taken my pills and rolled over
I need a new prescription as this one is almost over

Trying to reject another addiction,
to feed this forever condition.

My vision quickly twists and turns,
My chest and my heart continue to burn.
My arms they quiver,
my hands they shiver
I feel drunk yet I am sober

The pain affliction,
has caused my voice to become resistant.
A pill of chemicals, bleach and acid
quickly evaporating in my stomach
an anguish of pain,
in blood so vein.

A single human interaction,
two worlds they collide, crying and screaming.
until one dies and the other survives the sudden reaction.

Drunk yet sober,
it is finally over.

I cripple over at the automatic contraction,
now the devil is out for sudden satisfaction.
I'm drunk yet sober,
in rainy October.
