Smiles in the Morning, Tears at Night

Smiles in the morning
Tears at night
I wonder, dear god
If I'll be alright

The pain is spreading
And my heart aches
Every night when the smiles gone
I remember my mistakes

Unbidden it sinks in
And i reach out for a hand
No one else is awake though
And finally i understand

This life of mine ended
A long while back
In a delivery room
Where their eyes had gone black

A silly life to live where
Your failures start to devour your heart
When the bottle screams for you
And you find it hard to part

In drunken bliss you tingle
You feel right at home
No more smiles, no more tears
Never again will you be alone
