“(Waves of Alcohol)” © MSK 5-23-2018
In a refreshing wave of alcohol
Warmth flowing down my throat.
The glow continues on
While the tension seems to float.
It’s a wave of alcohol
Regret and guilt jump in
Reflections fade with each sip
It’s a game I never win.
The next wave of alcohol
Life feels pretty silly
The tallest wave of alcohol
Begins to numb the senses
The tsunami of alcohol
Puts depression on a hi boil
After an ocean of alcohol
The angry man just comes out
It will all be better
If I have another drink
I can handle it
Doesn’t matter what you think.
Following the flood of alcohol
Awake but not aware
Doesn’t matter who gets hurt
Long past the point I care
Wake in a desert with a driving thirst
Never again, never again
Can’t remember what I did
Friends look away and pretend.
It will all be better
If I have another drink
I deserve it
No matter what you think.
