One More (Lyrics by Trench)

I realize that I am not my brother’s keeper

With every strained breath I’m only getting weaker

I’ll need one more drink so I can sink even deeper

It all becomes clearer once you embrace the creature

That’s it! Fuck it! It’s all over now

For once goddamnit I finally figured it out

My only purpose in this life is to just get the fuck out

Sitting here broken and still just wondering how

Dealing with the chills while sweat drips from my brow

There goes my last drip of inspiration as I slam the glass down

Perhaps I’m too far now because I’m starting to drown

I must have panicked and I lost what I had just found

Fuck it, maybe it’ll come back after just one more round

Thank the fuck Christ, there it is again and it’s so profound

For once I achieved something so maybe I can gain some ground

Wait, I drifted out into space and it all slipped away

My whole life’s work gone because I’m missing the last page

I keep trying to rewrite it but I’m only drawing a blank

One more drink so I can refocus and plan my escape

Clear as day it returns and now I’m fully awake

I must be too excited because my hands have started to shake

Motherfucker! I delayed and now it’s all erased

I’ll need one more drink to help my poor mind create

Ah, there it is again and now I’m totally sure

But I’m so fucking sure that I’m becoming unsure again

So I’ll have to take one more of that shit I prefer

Forced to just one more pour to help me endure

Pure excitement washes over me and I’m totally floored

Pure excitement again because I rediscovered the cure

Everyone else seems to concur as I’m dragging myself off the floor

This is such a grand idea I’ll have to take all my shit outdoors

Alas, alone in my truck where I can finally share

Homebound with no home, I think I’m finally there

Losing all my last cares in this place I found nowhere

Now isn’t this rare, my final idea is still here, but I can’t turn around

Yet I’m stuck with this reasoning that’s just so damn sound

I swear I’m completely aware, I just don’t want to be found

Into the steel clutched in my hand, I load just one more round
