[Intro]
Yeah, it's a battlefield, inside my mind
Searching for peace that I can't seem to find
Sippin' on the pain, drown it in the night
Fast thoughts, slow beats, tryin' to make it right
[Verse 1]
Pour another glass, let the liquor burn
Every sip a lesson, every burn a turn
Memories haunting, shadows in my head
Battles in my brain, I’m feelin' dead
Eyes glossed over, pain’s a familiar friend
Poppin' pills to forget, but it’s just pretend
Fast life, slow tears, feel the shift
Reality drifting, caught in a rift
[Pre-Chorus]
Swear the world’s a blur, I can’t escape
Drinks and drugs, my last tape
Hoping for a change, but I stay the same
Lost in the storm, forget my name
[Chorus]
Drinking drowns the pain, so I can breathe again
Drugs stop the suffering, hide it all within
Fast or slow, my heart beats in a spin
Trying to find the light, but I plunge deeper in
[Verse 2]
Quick bursts of hope, then back to the dark
Flashes of dreams, torn apart
Sip slow, think fast, run the gamut of the mind
Trying to find some peace, but what I seek, I can't find
Mixing emotions, like the drinks I pour
Every dose a desire, wanting more
Smokin' out the sorrow, to numb the ache
Walking on a wire, just to feel awake
[Pre-Chorus]
Swear the world’s a blur, I can’t escape
Drinks and drugs, my last tape
Hoping for a change, but I stay the same
Lost in the storm, forget my name
[Chorus]
Drinking drowns the pain, so I can breathe again
Drugs stop the suffering, hide it all within
Fast or slow, my heart beats in a spin
Trying to find the light, but I plunge deeper in
[Bridge]
Maybe one day, I’ll find my way
Break these chains, escape this haze
Till then, I drown, I fade away
In the night, I’m lost, I stray
Fast moments, slow regrets
Living on the edge of threats
Hoping someday, I forget
The pain I’ll never forget
[Outro]
So I sip, so I pop
Till the day I stop
Drowning in the dark, I pop the lock
Searching for my soul, I lost the clock
Remembering the hope I dropped
Just a shadow, too far gone
But I keep holding on
Until the dawn, till the pain’s gone
