The Death of Me

What would you do at the point of absolute misery?

She let me know it was over

As if it didn’t matter at all

After something so heartless

A man can’t stand tall

 

I take this pain peacefully

But this hole keeps getting bigger

Is it okay if I swallow my pride

Along with a little liquor?

 

Pushed to the breaking point

Drunk as all hell

I sit here on a bridge

She wouldn’t care if I fell

 

I look below at the crashing waves

Farther than I can see

This emptiness in my chest

Will be the death of me
