Three Cheers
Sobriety is dying in me once again
The pain drains as I welcome home a long time friend
She is always their and is always fair she never lies
Just slides down smooth and we fall back into our old grooves
My blood stews in a chemical imbalance and my mind finally finds relief from
apathy
As me and my old friend kiss and lock lips she slips down into my soul
And once again plugs its holes
I never said a remedy didn’t come without tolls
So again the roses are red and violets blend to black
And once again I find myself speaking matter of factually
But the only sound she sends is my voice echoing back to me
I’m downing her and she’s drowning me
We can only be what we were designed to be
But she has always been a good friend to me
And I’m always too willing to pay her fees
Just so I can trade my memories for tranquility
Yet she is no difference than any other girl who has fallen for me
She is still slowly killing me
Her smooth curves are beckoning
But its her icy contents that bound us
And like the rest I always ask what will it hurt this once
But it happens again and again another lover
With a pieces of momentary bliss and death that’s hoovering in each and every
kiss
But with her I welcome the former and lace my fingers waiting for the latter
Together we clatter through this empty house
And laugh for time is now the only thing that matters
Let it cast our shadows and we can rejoice that ghosts have anatomy
Well that is until the sun passes a certain degree and even our shadows flee
Because not even they can bare the nightmare that is slowly coming to be
And they dare not guess my fate and dare not stay and wait
So I guess its just you and me baby
We can weigh our heavy hearts
And continue disposing of the memories it carts
Just as long as I’m asleep by morning because I’ve been promising
I wouldn’t let clean white light infatuate me anymore
So lets escape and take that hidden door in my mind
Behind it is a mystery that I’d like to find
Who knows maybe its death waiting to be greeting me
