Alcohol - Shannon LaBrie

There’s lots of things he can’t control

Like loving me, and alcohol

He doesn’t have the power to choose

He doesn’t have the will to lose

I thought my heart was strong

Strong enough to right the wrong

Oh, but that drink is strong

And it fights me all night long

I found my man on the ground again

Red from the drinking all my pain

He’s in love with the thing I hate

I can’t leave, I’m doomed to stay

He makes me bear the worst of things

All the memories, all the shame

But I’ll pick my man off the ground again

'Til the grave takes hold of him

He’s half the life I want to live

He’s half the life I’ll always dread

Our past and future look the same

I doubt we’ll ever try and change

He won’t let me be

Like a dead man holding me

We’re buried six years deep

I can’t escape from this disease

I found my man on the ground again

Red from the drinking all my pain

He’s in love with the thing I hate

I can’t leave, I’m doomed to stay

He makes me bear the worst of things

All the memories, all the shame

But I’ll pick my man off the ground again

'Til the grave takes hold of him

In the morning he’ll wake up and be remorseful

And I believe him, I’ll start feeling a little hopeful

But then the sun goes down and my hell, will start all over

I found my man on the ground again

Red from the drinking all my pain

He’s in love with the thing I hate

I can’t leave, I’m doomed to stay

He makes me bear the worst of things

All the memories, all the shame

But I’ll pick my man off the ground again

I’ll pick my man off the ground again

'Til the grave takes hold of him

There’s lots of things he can’t control

Like loving me, and alcohol
