Drinking Soothes Her
Drinking is soothing
 It drowns her sorrows
 It makes her numb
 She loses all memory
 As she drowns them
 In her hard boos
 They wash away
 And she feels free
 Her mind is clear
 And she can think
 Her crazy thoughts
 Never last long
 But what counts
 Is that they're there
 If she writes them down
 She can remember them
 Once her mind becomes
 As clear as it once was
 The night rushes away
 And it is only her
 Dancing under the
 Infinite bright stars
 She believes
 She won't remember a thing
 But surprises are to come
 She does as she pleases
 For she is alone
 And no one is home
 She drinks some more
 To wash away the pain
 She drinks some more
 To wash away the memories
 She drinks some more
 To brush away tears
 Tomorrow this will
 All but be a dream
 But when she falls asleep
 The drinks will fade
 And when she wakes
 She'll soon see
 That everything she did
 Everything she said
 She will always remember
