Dying Alone by Christopher ShinI'll drink another for
the love that I will never
wish to see in this life again.
I'll drink to feel that warm feeling
wash over me.
You were never the cause
of my self destructive nature
or the hopelessness in me.
Your not the cause of my
addiction of escapism.
The only guilt you ever had
was giving me the chance
to see you for who you really are.
A friend and I wanted more.
You were a drug that gave
me comfort in the night.
So let me die alone in my own
misery with a bottle of beer.
I stand in the winter wonderland.
Ready to die alone in my little
world of broken castles.
I stand alone huddling my body
for the warmth and the memories
we shared in your eyes.
