lyrics

twilighting whiskey world
age addresses life in mindful thought
with wild oats done and sewn
and new dawns await after midnight moons

drinking everyday
liver swimming in blood
of alcoholic youth
hanging every day immune to the dirt and mud
of alcoholic sooth

time to be young again
in new ways with new eyes to see
freshly with each breath
scoring under zero point 0 3

the time has come
for exorsizing spirits
in moderated droughts
well summon them
with thirst on our occasions
but not through destructive routes

I know its not as cool
as getting fucked up every god damn day
but for far too long ive played the fool
I was never cool anyways

ill still hold your hair
when you get too fucked up
ill never be that straight edge douche



that shakes their head and points their noses up
thatd just be a dickwad move

this is a love song
for my alcoholic friends
I learned a lot with every binge
but most of all my heart learned to mend

drinking 40s in the park
dark alleys and secret shots
and late nights with friends
possessed by spirits in the dark
sidewalk slamming in the yard
with no care to pretend

with the medicine
of social bravery taken
and inhibitions lowered
my heart has searched
and discovered truths through serums
that healed with every step forward

now the time has come
to start practicing sobriety
I know it wont be as fun
but my life and liver will probably thank me
