Divebar
The room was barely lit.
It reeked of cigarettes, pain and regret.
I thought I found myself that night;
Within a bottle of Captains and a few new friends.
I don't remember their names,
I can't remember their faces,
I won't remember their faces,
"Pour me another captain."
You think I've had too much?
I don't think I'll ever have enough.
It's hard to drown amphibious regrets,
I was barely lit.
I reeked of cigarettes, disdain and regret.
I'll stumble home tonight,
A taxi will only deliver me to my tomb with more celerity.
I'll stumble home tonight,
I'll try to find myself,
Illuminated in the streetlights.
