On The Ground

lyrics

On the ground

Just one more shot, strong like a bomb, I've only one knee on the ground
With or without, I’m already drowned
I hit the bottle, ease the pain, forget the troubles of my soul,
Facing the wall once again, I feel like I’ve lost control

… I never thought I’d get so low
Day after day, I sink How could I let all my dreams go?
Sip after sip I swear to quit Can’t crawl out of this hole I fell into
Some choose to live, I chose to drink

I just can't stop. Booze makes me blind I can’t restrain myself
I’m not so fine when reality comes to my mind
I’d truly love to free myself and start it all over again All over again
But I confess I’m not against just one last glass to kill the night

So long so wrong I built my own tomb that’s all I’ve done, see what I’ve become
Can’t count the tears I spent to drink They’re lost forever in the sink

Day after day, I sink My will is strong but my body’s weak
Sip after sip I swear to quit Take me out, show me the exit
Shut off my thirst before I’m dust Calm down the beast, break the habit
May I have one for the road ?
