Lyrics

In a blackened corner of an ale house
Sitting isolated you'll find me
Getting toasted
Flashbacks echo through the haze
Each sip I take causes me to be
Highly corrosive

I toast the darkness, feel the night
Lost in laughter start a fight
Through to morning light
Where oblivion welcomes me

Raise a glass and scream your name
Drown in sorrow 'til I'm numb
In the fire playing games
Downing shots from a loaded gun
Lost in rage I rise like thunder
Broken bottles cross the floor
Crying out for another
I want some more

Stumbling through the shadowed chaos
Whispers of regret sink deep within
My paranoia
Getting stoned while I'm alone can
Stop the twisting walls from closing in
Back to my corner

Caught in the claws of lunacy
Ruination, can't break free
Nothing left to see but
A wasted, empty shell of me

Raise a glass and scream your name
Drown in sorrow 'til I'm numb
In the fire playing games
Downing shots from a loaded gun
Lost in rage I rise like thunder
Broken bottles cross the floor
Crying out for another

Got my ticket and I'm waiting at the station
Heading for annihilation
But a cancellation means
Another one for my condemnation

Raise a glass and scream your name
Drown in sorrow 'til I'm numb
In the fire playing games
Downing shots from a loaded gun
Lost in rage I rise like thunder
Broken bottles cross the floor
Crying out for another
I want some more
