I drink

[kathryndurham]

Cheery! (and of course brilliant and poignant) xx

F**k, I can not manage to post the lyrics here. A sillily big challenge. Must have taken this song too literally.

[dadudadenn]

I drink until I'm lost and the street is my hideout,

where I vomit my pride out 'til I'm gasping for breath.

I drink to count the cost of a life I despair for,

until God hears my prayer for the compassion of death.

So I speak my bile at the gods who demean us,

and the silence between us, and the love none can save.

[dadudadenn]

For a life that is vile, for a soul that is ailing,

for a body that's failing as it heads for the grave.

I drink without a care, drink because I must,

drink to my despair, I drink to your disgust,

I drink, drink, drink, by God I drink.

Yes, I drink.

One of the most devastating drinking songs ever, as one of Aznavours greatest fans called it on his radio show.

[Jimmyriggers]

best theme-time radio hour ever!

[yochanan12]

Well, in a kinda sad way "goodbye" was a good show as well;-)
