Greg "Grey" Perkins - Alcohol Lyrics

It's a slow spin down
Feels like a wave washing over me
It's often around when I'm feeling blue or healing through some pain

It's always around waiting for me, in store, to be found
And when I'm down take a moment and give myself another round

Washing over me, flowing through my veins and it's so
Heavy, I carry the weight
I carry the guilt of
One, two, three; and I'm there again, no escape so
Please, just let me drift
Just let me be

Jim and John and Keith are gone, so I watch myself
I try to never start before lunch
I am polite and I don't fight if I've had too much
I try to remember all I can the next day
These are the rules of alcohol now you're on your own
So pour some courage and try to keep it sane

It hits me blind and I never know what I'll find
Ask me what and why
See the pain I feel and you'll have an answer then
