The Drink

Confused, Alone
to much to think
I look around
I see a drink

A drink I will drink
to forget tomorrow
fighting feelings
feelings of sorrow

lying awake
listening to silence
i reach for the drink
to forget all the violence

violence will pay
it will leave in the end
it has taken to many
friend upon friend

ones who forgive
the deeds undone
a battle lost
a new love won

but those loves are lost
like men at sea
to many to count
for you and me

so i sit here and drink
to the past of tomorrow
crying and weeping
in an endless sorrow.
