The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Still Breathing

Feeling it deep within
Just like a sin
I'm feeling like I'm dead
Angry thoughts in my head
I wanna die
While it's hard for me to try
I want to cry again
I'm talking to no friend
About how I feel
And everything is real
But I wanna close my eyes
From a world that won't let me hide
And I'm just tired
And my body feels unwired
While I can't forgive myself
And my life sits on a shelf
Filled with hate
And it'll be a while before I become great
