Drink they say as they pass you another
Drink they say when they know you gave it up
You take the cup knowing it will destroy you
The first drops are the start of an addiction
It swallows you before you even take a sip
Before it touches your lips
They do it for the fun
They do it for the idea
For the status
Disregarding those who have a problem
Disregarding themselves knowing they had too much
Merely to get smashed or wasted
Knowing it could ruin them
You know how it happens
But they forget your warnings
Your warnings are useless
When it is in their presence
You are the rebellion
You are the odd one out
To them you are weak one
The one who can’t hold his own
The one who is scared
But
The truth
The cold hard truth
Is you know this beast
You have been swallowed by this monster
And made your way out before
So you leave the party knowing
That the beast has taken more victims
