Drink a drink of madness
A toast unto your death
A golden bottle of loneliness
A can of passion spent
The liquid fire of agony
The welcome pain of loss
The vacant stare of bitterness
Your soul the distillers cost
You wake into another life
One you dreamed you drank away
The price of your night of ecstasy
Your soul you'll gladly pay.
You taste the taste of ashes
As you look about your heart
You see the light of your old life
Forever searching in the dark.
You scream that you want out of here
Please, God, make it all end
Until the madness takes control
And you break when you should bend
The sun sinks slowly on your pleas
A deaf ear, your way turned
Alone with the bottle by your side
You die in the life you've earned.
