Facing the blues

Liquor
Strong on my breath
Sweat
Running down my chest
Breathing
Heavy from the pain
Me
I'm burning up from the flames

You're gone no longer there
Wasn't I enough for you to stay here?
You left me broken
Drunk in my despair
Stumbling on
Life left me here

You're gone
I'm singing the blues
To get by I'm over thinking
To get away I'm over drinking
I face the truth when I rise
To give me peace I dream of your eyes
You're dead but I'm still here

Weren't you worried how I'd be
Looking back it was you and me
Didn't you think once about my pain
But its not your fault
Life is just a cruel game
