Lonely Souls Drowning

 

Lonely souls drowning

Choking on beer and pretzels

At the local dive

Bartenders smile for tips

Acting like you are best friends

This is your charade

The fantasy that you play

Just for survival

While they’re in it for money

You’re in it for attention

    So many people drink for social reasons and then realize they are alcoholic! Ugh.

      They do, we all have probably had people in our own families that have suffered from this. Denial is a typical response to it unfortunately.

      It really is, but so many people live and die this way.
