It consumes me

The taste still lingers in my throat

As my life changes to such a sad note

Looking up as you all gloat

Looking into the empty glass guess what i see

Throwing my life away as it consumes me

I wake up and the sickness takes control

The more i drink the less i care i begin to lose my hold

I cannot move on as it is just to heavy to carry on this load
