The Ascent

I hate this monster inside me

My body’s breaking down

I’m alone and I cant breathe

You wouldn’t understand, no chance

Cause I feel so fucking dead

Take the last drink, the bottle's gone

Washed down my throat, I’m full, but empty

Guess I’m not the man that I wanna be

The bar’s my only friend, and it’s killing me

I’m not losing this fight, oh wait, I guess I just lost it last night

Guess I’m not the man that I wanna be

The bar’s my only friend and it’s killing me

Frail boy with a shallow mind

I’m not quite sure that I’m the type of guy

You should be hanging around

I tend to let people down

This is the last time getting high

Promises sound just like last night

I don’t know anything anymore

Help me regain control

I’ve been dependent for so long

I need to leave

I’ve been dependent for so long

I need to live (again)

Take the last drink, the bottle's gone

Washed down my throat, I’m full, but empty

Guess I’m not the man that I wanna be

The bar’s my only friend, and it’s killing me

I’m not losing this fight, oh wait, I guess I just lost it last night

Guess I’m not the man that I wanna be

The bar’s my only friend and it’s killing me

I’m drinking whisky like water

Cause water does nothing for me

I’m full of pain I need it more

I’m as empty as the whisky bottle on my floor

This is the end

I don’t need this anymore

Taking control

Is finding strength to let it go

I’m drinking whisky like water

Cause water does nothing for me
