Array ( [sid] => 88784 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Alcohol Addictions [time] => 2005-03-25 23:58:46 [hometext] => this came along because alcohol addiction runs in my family and i keep thinking i'll be next. [bodytext] => I can’t believe I stand here now
In front of the mirror that sweats
Half unconscious trying to escape myself
Taking comfort in Vodka and Remy
Mad at myself cause I thought I could win
Blood shot eyes and shaky legs
The room starts to spin I fall to the floor
I’ve stretched myself beyond my means
Afraid to find something to control this
Cause I might breakdown in front of you
Tired of being ignored by those who should help
So lost in their little worlds they’ll never fix
Crying into the pillow I realize it’s been awhile
Since I’ve gone and screwed things up just like I always do
And I have no place to call my own
Throwing up out the window onto the street below
I’ve been here before I’ve felt this pain
I need to justify the reasons for how I’m living
What would you do if it were you
Sitting in AA I stand and leave the circle
Look back at everyone and say
Please forget the things I should have said. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 370 [topic] => 66 [informant] => thegurl [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )
