I'M Not Drinking Anymore, But, I Ain'T Drinking Any Less

I'm not drinking anymore (but I ain't drinking any less) I wake up every morning It always starts the same Trying to remember yesteday It's just part of the game Lord, I can't go on not remembering last night I can't keep livin' hard I must confess Lord, I 'm here to say I'm not drinking anymore But, then again, I ain't drinking any less I'm not drinking anymore I'm not drinking any less I'm tired of sleeping on the floor My life is one hot mess A room of empty bottles Ashtrays full up to the brink I look at them and all I feel Is that I need another drink This can't go on forever I can't deal with all the stress I'm not drinking anymore But, I ain't drinking any less Lord, I can't go on not remembering last night I can't keep livin' hard I must confess Lord, I 'm here to say I'm not drinking anymore But, then again, I ain't drinking any less
