Thank God I Didn'T Do It

Staring at the bottle in my brother’s closet This is the point at which I’ve finally lost it Liquid escape, intoxicating release You’re the one I need the only thing that will keep me from knowing this disease is preying on me She left me for no reason as the Summer season just began Then she blocked me out completely pretending I was dead Failing to see that what she did to me had killed all joy inside my head and made me live a life of misery No real explanations, only excuses and attacks on who and how I was I need this one release I beg you please bring relief however brief it may be All I want is to fall asleep and not dream of her All I want is to pass some time and not think of her All I want is to finally be free from this grip she still has on me
