remember the time i couldn't speak 

everybody heard 

the pin didn't drop it came and crashed down 

then there was the time i couldn't walk 

everybody laughed 

so entertaining was this breakdown 



turn and face the walls 

i'm only drinking 

eyes to the floor 

i'm merely sinking 



then there was the time i couldn't see 

blind as a bat for drink and easy laughs 

a terrible time 

but keep it in mind 

you can't tell your friends man cos this shit is mine



turn and face the wall 

i'm only drinking 

eyes to the floor 

i'm merely sinking 

so leave me alone 

and why does it have to get like this? 

it always seems to get like this 

well i never meant to get like this 

every night
