one drink
Staring at each other
looking straight up
in the cabinet
there sits
ones favorite drink
get the pop
and get the booze
time to party
or so you think
mix it up
and pour it in
to the basement
so no one sees
one sip then two
standing to sitting
dizzy then buzzed
laughing to crying
yelling to hurting
your sense's go wild
you lose your self control
running upstairs
and hitting against tables
to smashing against lights
the truth comes out
with things that shouldn't
cant talk
cant look
eyes turn red
face burns up
your exhausted
but cant fall asleep
you sit there and wonder to yourself
what have i done
and look how i hurt
you cant take back
what is said
and what is done
you can say your sorry
but that's not enough
its up to you
to make things right
now think it through
it might take time
but eventually
everything will fall into place
looking straight up
in the cabinet
there sits
ones favorite drink
get the pop
and get the booze
time to party
or so you think
mix it up
and pour it in
to the basement
so no one sees

standing to sitting
dizzy then buzzed
laughing to crying
yelling to hurting
your sense's go wild
you lose your self control
running upstairs
and hitting against tables
to smashing against lights
the truth comes out
with things that shouldn't
cant talk
cant look
eyes turn red
face burns up
your exhausted
but cant fall asleep
you sit there and wonder to yourself
what have i done
and look how i hurt
you cant take back
what is said
and what is done
you can say your sorry
but that's not enough
its up to you
to make things right
now think it through
it might take time
but eventually
everything will fall into place
