I hate this monster inside me
My body’s breaking down
I’m alone and i cant breathe
You wouldn’t understand, no chance
Cause i feel so fucking dead
Take the last drink, the bottle's gone
Washed down my throat, i’m full, but empty
Guess i’m not the man that i wanna be
The bar’s my only friend, and it’s killing me
I’m not losing this fight, oh wait, i guess i just lost it last night
Guess i’m not the man that i wanna be
The bar’s my only friend and it’s killing me
Frail boy with a shallow mind
I’m not quite sure that i’m the type of guy
You should be hanging around
I tend to let people down
This is the last time getting high
Promises sound just like last night
I don’t know anything anymore
Help me regain control
I’ve been dependent for so long
I need to leave
I’ve been dependent for so long
I need to live (again)
Take the last drink, the bottle's gone
Washed down my throat, i’m full, but empty
Guess i’m not the man that i wanna be
The bar’s my only friend, and it’s killing me
I’m not losing this fight, oh wait, i guess i just lost it last night
Guess i’m not the man that i wanna be
The bar’s my only friend and it’s killing me
I’m drinking whisky like water
Cause water does nothing for me
I’m full of pain i need it more
I’m as empty as the whisky bottle on my floor
This is the end
I don’t need this anymore
Taking control
Is finding strength to let it go
I’m drinking whisky like water
Cause water does nothing for me
