After the Party

No more whiskey; no more pills
No more void to try and fill
No more tears; no more broken heart
No more hitting bottom; no more brand new starts
No more excuses; no poor poor me
No more swimming in a pool of gluttony
No more bad days-with bad nights to follow
No more emptiness; my heart no longer hollow
No more wishing; no more let downs
No more waiting; for whose not around
No more dwelling on my negative past
No more because I found true love at last
