Matthan Atherton Poet I do not know?

A Drinking Habit

The tears fall down like rain
Not waking up to you drive me insane

The now so dark abyssal nights
Is not worth the drinking and our fights

I wish I could be a better man
I wish I could change my ways
Now that I am missing the one thing that made me happy
I am blind to reality, in a haze

I want to rewind
I want to show you I can be kind again

I am tired of sleeping alone
Baby, I wish you would just come home
Or at least, I wish I could hear your voice on the phone

I wish I could be a better man
I wish I could change my ways
Now that I am missing the one thing that made me happy
I am blind to reality, in a haze

It's not easy knowing I could have changed all this
That we would still be happy, and your lips I could kiss
I just want you back, it is you I miss

I wish I could be a better man
I wish I could change my ways
Now that I am missing the one thing that made me happy
I am blind to reality, in a haze

I stopped my ways for you
But you are long gone
I just hope to not repeat my ways
I want to meet someone else in future days
And never go back to old ways
