Goodbye To Alcohol

Goodbye To Alcohol


I’m writing this to tell you that I’m done,
I’m tired of you always thinking that you’ve won.
You have ruined my life for the final straw,
You have ripped out my soul and left me raw.

You’ve turned something that should be fun,
Into a never ending battle that takes away my sun.
I’m tired of it all, I don’t want you anymore.
I can’t handle my mind and body being so sore.

My family is disgusted my friends are so bored,
The constant drinking I definitely can’t afford.
My body is tired, My mind is too weak,
The Lord is who I really should want to seek.

Not some buzz that leaves me wanting more,
It’s eaten me inside and out starting at my core.
I have so much more fun, without you by my side,
It’s just too bumpy of a road to ride.

I have driven this road way too many times,
I feel as though I have committed too many crimes.
You make me so sick, I want you out of my life,
I want to have a family, I want to be somebody’s wife.

At the rate I’m going I don’t know how long I’d be around,
I’ve hit rock bottom and feel like I’m headed for underground.
No longer do I want to black out and lose control.
And for goodness sakes I don’t want to end up on parole.

I’ve been given this chance, to start anew.
And by golly that’s exactly what I’m going to do.
No more drunken nights I can’t remember,
I’m going to try the cool thing and be sober.
