Additcted to Alcohol
Have you ever grieved for someone that's still alive,
Wondering each day if they're going to survive.
Having a disease that's killing them day by day,
Addicted to alcohol, what else can I say
I used to see the world in you, so loving and kind,
And now it's like you have a complete different mind.
Those memories I once knew are starting to fade,
Look at this mess you've intentionally made.
I can't seem to wonder whats going on in your brain,
All I know is that its causing me so much pain.
The pain of seeing you kill yourself with every drink,
And before we know it you'll be dead in a blink.
Nothing we say to will help make you stop,
Buying a bottle each time you got the shop.
I wish we could go back to before it got bad,
I really miss having you as my dad.
