Sometimes I wonder
If I would be better off
Deleting these messages
Before the morning
Because I don't know
If I want to see
What raw heartbreak
Looks like in my life
Because there's always something
I don't see when I'm sober
It's a shield
For us. Always.
Even if we think
We're always up front and real
There's always a shield that
Sometimes when we're drunk
We can't think enough
To think it into existence
To believe it
Into existence
Did I believe our love into existence
When I was sober?
When I didn't have
A reason to get drunk
Because nothing would be better
Than the sober reality of being with her?
