On Alcohol Wings

Down I went, deeper and deeper
Yet the bottom seemed to elude me
The harder I tried, the deeper to go
For some reason it would not let it be

So there I was, well pour me another
To these depths I might sink tonight
Memory that eats at me, will fade away
On wings of alcohol induced flight

At least for tonight as the mist closes in
And reality is bent and twisted out of shape
There I want to wander in a forest of illusion
Where midnight meets midday making my escape

But even there I know in my alcohol induced haze
That my fantasy is but a whisper away from reality
So keep this reality away from me, at least tonight
Hope that could progress from possibility to actuality
