One Too Many
The engine revs faster,
The transmission grinds as i shift,
I turn the music up to forget why im
here,
Moonlight flooded the ground making
everything crystal clear,
I saw every detail of every object as
it flew past my window,
Yet, i couldnt see anything through
the stone wall in my mind,
The car starts to shake as my speed
increases,
The axles groan with every small
bump,
Its finally time to let off the gas,
Spinning the wheel, i could see my
whole past,
Every mistake, and regret and all the
heartbreak,
Without feeling a thing the whole trip
was over,
Not a drop touched my lips,
But i was never once sober
