Drinking ..... and Why?

Sometimes it's hard to breath 
Sometimes it takes me hours to fall asleep
In when i'm not sleeping i'm thinking
Why do people have habits with drinking
Familys have died from car crashes
Childern have died from ciggarete ashes
Drinking causes more than pain
It causes suffering
And the loss of a loved one
Some people drink to hide there pain
But why? Why take the chance of taking your life
Or anothers life...... A child or an adult
