smells like another dead drunk

Look away
look away
to the sky

Theres a lonely lost boy
thats about to die

look away
look away
to the sky

is he gonna make it?
no but he will try

A walk down the path
 of all that is gone

he keeps on walking
he keeps trudging on

he tries to surface
but he will sink
he tries to escape
but then he drinks

ALL THE WATER IN HIS THROAT IS DROWNING OUT HIS SCREAMS
I TRIED TO LET GO
BUT IS WAS JUST A DREAM

I TRIED TO LET
TRIED TO LET
LET IT GO
BUT I COULDNT SAVE HIM
another fatal blow

another hit
another punch
I tried helping him
but you cant save a drunk

I tried to help him
not lose control
but instead of helping him
I had to let him go


I had to let him
had to let him
let him go
before he attacked her
before he went and smacked her

he didnt even mean to
it was the demons in his head
 He tried to cut them out
but instead died and bled
