“Dear Alcohol” lyrics

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

Repeat the cycle everyday I gotta start with a drink
My life been getting sorta crazy and I don’t wanna think
I look myself right in the mirror and I don’t even blink
Then I get angry take the rest and pour it right in the sink
I know where this road goes
Alcohol ain’t my friend but I keep drinking cause these demons roam
And follow me round everywhere I go
It clouds my mind and soul
It turns my heart cold
But I keep drinking cause it makes me feel like I’m not alone
I having problems my pride won’t let me reach out
Looking at this bottle having nothing but doubt
Don’t wanna drink but it keeps coming around and around and around

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I know I need to quit (I need to quit)
I gotta do better (I gotta do better)
Example to these kids (example to these kids)
Cause they’re watching when I’m there
But I’m scared
Cause I been chasing the man that I am when I start to drink
He’s cocky confident and he don’t give a damn what you think
This world is beating me down and it’s
Pushed me right to the brink
I take a shot every time because man it helps me escape
I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me
I want to talk to somebody but I feel no one relates
I need better now
I think I’ve lost my way
I’m having battles with faith
It’s painted right on my face
I hope better times are coming
No chase but I’m still running
I gotta take control
And I won’t stop for nothing
Dear God this is my test
Promise that I’ll do my best
Just help with this pain I feel and pressure that is on my chest

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
