"What a drag it was to be limited by reality."


Drinking his gluttony, lies, and fate,
It’s his life the bottle will take.
Depression, tears, and bruises surround him.
He drinks away his pain and numbs them.
The feelings are fake, over his life they take.

Running away from his problems,
Yet running into deadly sins.
Depression, scars, and anger devour him.
He drinks away his aches and numbs them.
Many have been where he is – near the sins.

To his seat he wobbled,
Pushing the gas full throttle.
Bad memories and his broken family remind him,
To drink away his hurts and numb them,
Until he goes full throttle.

And finishes his Death in a Bottle.

There's no point in fussin' over spilt milk, especially if it ain't spilt an' if it ain't milk.
