[Verse 1]
Religiously drinking every night.
Beaten black and blue – I’m losing the fight.
Now you’ve started drinking in the day
My life span shortening day by day
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
We both need a break from this routine
There’s only so much i can do to keep you clean.
Slow down please – I fear for you.
You can’t live without me and that’s the truth.
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
I have to admit that I’m gunna let you down.
I’m just not sure how much longer I’ll be around.
It’s not that i want to leave you but you’ve given me no choice.
I’ve been crying out for help but you didn’t hear my voice.
[Instrumental]
[Bridge – passion, angry, upbeat]
Oh you treat me oh so bad and then you wonder if I’m okay.
You think you can replace me – that’s what i heard you say.
I really have done absolutely – everything i can
But you’ve always got a drink - held inside your hand.
Oh I’ve been with you since day one,
It started out just as a little fun
But you lost control – you lost your soul
I never dreamt you’d lose it all
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
I have to admit that I’m gunna let you down.
I’m just not sure how much longer I’ll be around.
It’s not that i want to leave you but you’ve given me no choice.
I’ve been crying out for help but you didn’t hear my voice.
[Shouting]
Oh
[Chorus]
I have to admit that I’m gunna let you down.
I’m just not sure how much longer I’ll be around.
It’s not that i want to leave you but you’ve given me no choice.
I’ve been crying out for help but you didn’t hear my voice.
But the truth is you are the one who let me down
You knew each drink might mean that i might not be around
It’s not that i want to leave you but you’ve given me no choice.
I’ve been crying out for help - did you choose to ignore my voice?
