Man Down II

Concentration is stark
I'm staring in the dark
I'm daring my heart
I ain't keen on living either
Heavy metal is not my thing
I just need some Nickelback dark horse right now
Something strong for the soul too
Booze I’m looking to you
It's true I got the blues
Just erase my memory I need to forget
But this I'm going through is live
It is not on set
I need sounds louder then Roxette
Add in some extra bass
I need to be momentarily deaf
Screw my inhibitions
I just don't care right now
I need to recall my sober thoughts right now
The drive to a drink seem inevitable
This feelings I need to be forgettable
Have you felt so down
Is like you can ask someone
Have you ever seen the rain
This is more then just morbid
This is out there in orbit
Oh Lord trouble so hard
Don't nobody knows these troubles I got
Guess that means I've gone crazy
Is there anything in this forsaken world 
That can save me
Save me from an empire of dirt
So that I wouldn't feel so much hurt
A drink or two will do
It's over due
Just something strong with a kick
It will be on it'll be a hit
It will help with some sleep
