Alcoholism: the Silent Killer
Alcoholsim...The Silent Killer
When I have a problem...you are always there
I don’t have to wait...you always care
I can cry into the bottle and tell you everything
Who would ever have thought of all the trouble you’d bring
You make me feel better than anything else ever could
People try to get me...but I am totally misunderstood
All I want is to feel good every second of every day
Why do you make me feel so good and then make me pay?
I can’t get away from all of the damage create
It doesn’t matter what you do...I always take the bait
I would live and die for you and that’s my reality
When I have you inside me I am carefree
I feel no pain inside or out
You were always the answer...I never had doubts
Until you started getting me into trouble and letting demons in
I tried to fight you but just couldn’t win
I lost everything in my life because of you
I should have told you then that we were through
But I hung on and gave you more of my life
You made me stare longingly at the blade of my knife
On much more than one occasion
I have to come to a conclusion and make a decision
I either have to give my life for you or let you go
What should I do? I honestly don’t know.
How can I make it without my only longtime friend
I thought we’d be together in the end
I thought I’d drink myself to death and go on to better things
You give me power...you give me wings
I’ve tried to make it without you before and was bored to tears
You take away all of my pain and my fears
You ease every fowl feeling that comes over me
Why do you hurt me so bad in the end...why can’t you just let me be
You are my very best friend...that much is true
I would have given my life for you
I can’t leave you alone and being without you would kill me
Please let me go...Let me be free
I am going to die if you keep hanging on to my soul
I already know that destroying my life is your goal
You come from demons...you’re coursing through my veins
You live inside me...I’ve got to take the reigns
I can’t let you kill me...I need to be with Mondo
You have to let me break free...You have to let me go
I can’t live without my fallen angel and he means more to me than you
For him...there’s nothing I wouldn’t do
It is going to be a struggle...the biggest fight of my life
I’ve got to let you go and become his wife
This is going to be a fight to the death...I already know
One of the two of us has got to go
Either you are me...we’ll find out who wins
You have made me commit too many sins
I can’t even look myself in the mirror
I’m confused most of the time but I am seeing you clearer
You are poison to my soul
I guess, from the beginning, that was your goal
To poison me and end my life
You want to take me out with a butcher knife
Or maybe you’ll use some pills
You have to stop...you’re giving me chills
I think about the damage you could do to me
I have to get away...I have to be free
If I keep following you...I’ll wind up in prison
I have a lot to think on...I have to make a decision
Alcohol...you are my Silent Killer
You are insane and your bite is a chiller
Let me go you insane friend of mine
I have to give up the hard liquor, the beer and the wine
It is going to hurt me to say goodbye
I think I’ll cry...I think I’ll die
I don’t want to let you go
You’ve been my lifeline...this you have to know
However, Mondo is light shining into my soul
Killing me is not his goal
No that goal is yours and you are evil and unreal
You wanted me to do really bad ****...even kill
You are going against my will
You have to leave...you know the deal
Take your fictional fun times and shove them up your ass
You want to kill me...I think I’ll pass
