War
Nightmares toss and turn
Screw it I'm awake
Drink breakfast will I never learn
Lashes sobriety smiles, all fake
I hate myself vodka softens the blow
Try to act normal but I know that they know
You want to save me from me
I am a vicious enemy
Standing out on this ledge
Ignoring the love you pledge
Things are looking way too grim
Jump in the deep end
I can't even swim
I don't care if I even survive
I know I can change I lack the drive
Don't ask if I'm okay
I don't feel like lying today
Can't sleep drink some more
It's me against me in my own war
