Sober

Sober
A thought
A sobering thought
I write - All my pain
When sober I'm not
It hurts all again
All this hurt when it rains
And these dreams
All these dreams
My "Great Fountain of Dreams"

I'll write 'till "The End"
I'm dead in my fight
Translucent
You see
See through me
See me
As sober can be
Not sober to be
So sober "Hate Me"

This fountain - My Pen
I'll dream 'till "The End"
I'm writing again
All this writing again
No letters to send
It's love that's pretend
So clíche - All This Pain
   ALL THATS WASTING AWAY!!!

And this rain
All this rain
   ALL THIS HURT WHEN IT RAINS!!!

I'm dead to my thoughts
So sober 
A thought
A sobering thought
   So
Sober you see
Never sober "Hate Me"
Translucent
I write
Of Mountainous Heights
A Fountain of Dreams
I pretend when I write
Beautiful this pen - I lost my "Great Fight"
When this ink leaves no stain
It's just raining again
