Downward spiral 
Heart is broken
Too much pain
Seen so much violence 
Would make most insane 
Drink that liquor 
I’ll forget much quicker
Mind foggy 
Vision blurred
Babbling war stories 
Speech slurred
I don’t want to remember 
Snort this coke
You won’t choke
More liquor 
Mind and soul 
Become much sicker
Owned by the night
Drowning in memories 
You can’t fight
Battlefield scars 
Left their mark 
It’s dark 
Clawing to freedom
I don’t know the way 
Drink more liquor 
I begin to decay 
Nobody knows 
My mind 
Frozen in time
Scenes of war 
I’ve been here before
3am
Bewitching hour
I’m up again 
Face your demons
No!
I’ll have another drink
My mind won’t think
Immersed in booze 
What would you choose? 
It has only just begun
Shadowy nights
I can’t take flight
Trapped
In the prison of my mind
I am alone.
