As I grab the bottle

I know it’s wrong

But I can’t erase

What’s already been done/ gone on



It’ll take away the anger

It’ll take away the pain

It’ll give me peace

And happiness again



Save me from myself

Save me from me

This is not who I am

Or I wanna be



The fear of feeling

The emotions – the hurt

No more cutting

So drink is my last resort



It’ll free me

From myself, this life

It’s all I have

But I know it aint right



Save me from myself

Save me from me

This is not who I am

Or I wanna be



I’m not an alcoholic

Deep down inside

It’s just my last attempt

At trying to hide



My tears. My fears.

From the mess in my heart

Which is ruining my life

And tearing me apart



Save me from myself

Save me from me

This is not who I am

Or I wanna be



This booze helps me escape

From the truth, from reality

Under influence, I’m different

Under influence, I’m not me
