Nightmare Staring Back
it’s 11:42 at night
i finished the vodka under my bed
it burns of desperation and sorrow
as i take the last drink
yet i need more
i need something to numb the pain
i dig around in drawer by my bed
search for some pills
god only knows what they are
as i swallow them i get up
i walk slowly over to my window
open the currents and find
nothing but myself staring back
i look into my own eyes
just to find my own nightmare
i have became the person
i never wanted to be
