80 Proof



Every waking moment

I yearn for you

Sip after sip turn into shots

Thoughts fade

Just for a little while

As I consume you

My eyes leak flammable liquid

Strike a match and let my burdens flame on

Guilt-free

Only if I was so lucky

Instead guilt fills my emptiness

I miss you when you’re not in me

You give me a high that no one else can

You allow me to change characters

When I see my reflection

I don't even recognize who I have become

Clenching the neck of you

I pour out my sins

You burn so good going down

Mixing into my blood stream

You have always given me your undivided attention

With every private session

So, I kiss you good night

As I fall into a deep coma

Tomorrow I will awake

With you pounding at my head

Telling me how much you love me

I tried to fight you

Even though I said "I'll never touch you again"

I find ways to justify my love

But in my heart you've left a black hole

And it’s getting harder to fill

As long as we continue this love affair

You know I’m not going anywhere

I'll forever be yours

Now that's the truth '80 Proof'
