[Intro]
Waking up to the same cruel sun,
Swearing today, oh today will be the one.
Drowning in shadows of last night’s pain,
Every promise broken, can I break these chains?
[Verse 1]
Mirror on the wall, show me the truth,
A reflection of the dreams I’m trying to lose.
Craving those memories that linger and fall,
But the ghost of alcohol just whispers, ‘Not at all.’
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear the voices and I beckon and plead,
"What’s one more drink? Just let it feed."
The demon inside me, it’s a battle I’ll have to face.
Can I win this war or just lose my place?
[Chorus]
Alcohol ghost , why won’t you let go?
A nightly version of sorrow in every single low.
You whisper sweet nothings, drag me down again,
Alcohol ghost says,
(evil voice)
Boy, you know I’ll always win!"
[Verse 2]
I scream at the night, and down deep, I’m yearning for peace,
With every sip, it feels like sweet release.
But your evil laughter echoes like thunder in my brain,
Will I ever become untangled, oh, it drives me insane.
[Chorus]
Alcohol ghost , why won’t you let go?
A nightly version of sorrow in every single low.
You whisper sweet nothings, drag me down again,
Alcohol ghost says,
(evil voice)
Boy, you know I’ll always win!"
[Bridge]
Every time I rise, you take me down,
With every new dawn I try reclaim my crown.
These scars tell the story of a fight unwon,
But I’ll stand up and battle until the alcohol ghost is done.
[Chorus]
Oh, demon of the bottle, why won’t you let go?
Crashing waves of sorrow in every single low.
You whisper sweet nothings, drag me down again,
Whispering, "Boy, you know I’ll always win!"
[Outro]
And wake up in the morning, and rise from the mess,
And whisper to myself, "Today I’ll do my best."
Fighting you seems tiresome, a path so unfair,
But deep down inside, I know I'll soon get there.
(A quiet promise, echoing through the night,
Fighting for freedom, I’ll take back my light.)
