[Intro] (Buildup)
Dark skies hover, shadows whisper low
The night consumes what the daylight won’t show
A broken soul with a glass of despair
Lost in the war, no one will care
[Verse 1]
Fingers bleed on shattered glass floors
Lost in the craving, yearning for more
A scream in the silence, a cry for help
Fading under the weight of my own hell
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Times have changed, life got harder
With all the liquid, I must barter
Do I drink, or am I smarter
Well I think I have an answer
[Chorus] (Heavy male vocals)
No, no, no, no way
Intoxicate your brain
You’ll never feel the same
Just drink away the pain
Drowning in alcohol
Failing protocol
Staring at the wall
Lost in overhaul
[Verse 2]
Demon’s faces pop up everywhere
All malicious with a piercing glare
This poison dance, a deadly game
Drowning me deeper, calling my name
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Times have changed, life got harder
With all the liquid, I must barter
Do I drink, or am I smarter
Well I think I have an answer
[Chorus] (Heavy male vocals)
No, no, no, no way
Intoxicate your brain
You’ll never feel the same
Just drink away the pain
Drowning in alcohol
Failing protocol
Staring at the wall
Lost in overhaul
[Bridge] (Dark Buildup)
Rage ignites within my hollow soul
Rampaging around I lose control
Broken chains and shattered dreams
Nothing’s ever as it seems
[Metal Solo]
(Guitar wailing with aggressive riffs and fast-paced licks)
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Times have changed, life got harder
With all the liquid, I must barter
Do I drink, or am I smarter
Well I think I have an answer
[Chorus] (Heavy male vocals with a long sustained note)
No, no, no, no way
Intoxicate your brain
You’ll never feel the same
Just drink away the pain
Drowning in alcohol
Failing protocol
Staring at the wall
Lost in overhaul
[Outro]
Fallen, abandoned, lost my fight
To the taste of this endless blight
Echoes of a man who once was bright
Now just a demon in the dark of night
