Alcohol Atonement

For years I've been saying this really must stop
The insanity, the madness, the bubble will pop
Crazy situations I've found myself in
After drinking some wine, knocking back some gin

Waking up again with my ever pounding head
Laughing and crying at the crass things I've said,
Dejectedly returning the things that I stole,
Feeling like I'm descending into a massive black hole

Depression, anxiety, the panic that arose
The darks sides of life that everyone knows
I sought to push down with self-medication
Instead of dealing with my own sadness, resentment, anger and frustration

How did I ever think
That the answer was another drink?
Instead it took me to the brink
And now I'm breaking the link
