Slurred

A monster makes a man?
Or was it the drink?
What do you think?
His soul does it shrink?
The poison lulls him to the lack to stand

Slurred

Crawling, bawling, falling, tumbling
As he lurched across the floor
So much, too much, no more liquor
Just please come back to the man you were before
Now look at you, hands on that girl, fumbling

Slurred

So the alcohol made this thing, miss?
Oh no, surely you're mistaken
If only two he'd taken
For woe, he doesn't seem shaken
No one was there to toss him into his abyss

Slurred

No. He was already evil within
He had beaten the fruit he bore
Sexed up his daughters tip they were sore
And locked away the mother for not doing her chore?
No. He was already evil to begin

Slurred

Please! You have to stop sir! Go back to the way you once were!
His body is fleeting
His mind is retreating
His spirits no longer greeting
No… I mustn't watch, my tears will just blur

Slurred

See him stumble across the yard?
Seizing his poison
Killing the void in
Himself, now devoid in
Hope as he starts the ignition of his car

Slurred

He drove with haste because
No one would serve
If he just continued to swerve
His vehicle would crunch after curve
And no one noticed his breath was

Slurred

And there his blood will trickle because
There where he laid
In his own dying grave
N'ver drink would he save
And no one noticed his body was

Slurred

And now his spirit would wander because
He couldn't help but drink them all down
So they gaze up from Hell with frowns
And in Heaven he lost his crown
And no one noticed that he was

Slurred
