The Difference Between Drinking and Getting Drunk
When you say no tomorrow
The headlights coming on
You're screaming round in circles
And comaed on the lawn
Alone but for a headache
That hangs around all day
Afraid they're gonna lock you up
And throw away the key
The stars they look so peaceful
Despite their bleeding lights
You say, sprawled on the pavement
Throughout the fogfilled night
To wake up in a golfcourse
With an empty cardboard box
Mad, deprived and driven
To fit the keys into the lock
Its no better to remember
Than tomorrows angry glare
Beaming down from cursed heavans
Couldn't reality dissappear
For just one cool, dark second
Instead of tearing through your skull
With furious determination
In your tiny pinpoint hell
Are you screaming at the universe?
Are you feeling better now?
Do you want to dissappear completely
And never again be found?
The answers come up short
When you're looking through the drink
Until you know the difference between
Drinking and getting drunk.
