coping not coping
drinking away the pain
the bottle my only friend
suffering in vain
waiting for this slow end
always feeling alone
drowning in the rain
sinking like a stone
my life a bloody stain
I cant breathe anymore
i just want to go back to before
coping not coping
no hope left
life slips away each day
and i don't even care
nothing left to make me stay
pain is to much to bare
on a path to self destruction
a train going off the rails
my life a malfunction
its time for me to bail
i can't breathe anymore
i just want to go back to before
coping not coping
no hope left
