I don’t want to get drunk
Why shouldn’t I get drunk
I’m on my own
I don’t want to let the pain in too near
I could be responsible
I would be grown up about it
I don’t want to be madly happy
No tears of happiness
Can hold back this night from the morning
I didn’t want to say all of those things I said, but
I felt neat, I looked good
& I damned well wanted you to know it
The fights had stopped, the music too
The brave face turned towards despair
& he sent in another song request
