lyrics

Pouring shots like rain, we drown the pain
A drink or two, just to feel the same
It's a toxic dance we can't break free
Chasing highs, it's our misery

Lost in the haze, we're blind to the cost
Liquid escape, it's all we've lost

Broken dreams, shattered glass
The grip of alcohol, it holds us fast
We toast to destruction, it's all we know
Ignoring the damage, we continue to sow

Bottled demons, they're taking control
Fading into the night, losing our soul

Lost in the haze, we're blind to the cost
Liquid escape, it's all we've lost
We're tempting Fate by moving towards the grain
Turning to drink to solve our problems

So raise your glass, one last time
To the emptiness, to the decline
In this liquid prison, we're trapped, you see
Drinking our lives away, we'll never be free
So raise your glass, one last time
Ignoring the truth, we're living a lie
