He wakes up has a drink or two
He has two more to follow suit
By 12 hes falling down the stairs
By 1 hes thinking no one cares
He struggles to iron his clothes
He said that he'd be out 'til god who knows?
And his badge is fixed to his left arm
He stinks of drink yet hes still calm
What a way to live your life my father
Each drink it drowns your son and daughter
And I know that it hurts, But you didnt have to go and do your worst
And i wanna shout, And i wanna scream until my walls come tumbling down
onto what youve done, to your son
So he wakes again and blows off work
He looks at me and gives a smirk
A smirk i'll never see again
The drink its stolen my best friend
You always said you couldnt think
So is that why you chose the drink
Or was it he that came to you
He touched your heart your lips turned blue
And I know that it hurts, But you didnt have to go and do your worst
And i wanna shout, And i wanna scream until my walls come tumbling down
onto what youve done, But im still your son
