Description I breathe I know it’s acid
To my lungs it’s a fire
You seem like you know everything
Except what I desire

It’s never been a consequence
I never really cared
Never really cared about the way
They thought I never dared

I could have left you cold and out of tune
A rusty piano with no repair coming soon
I’m just a fiddler without a fiddle
And you my dear just knew too little

Too little too late as the story goes
Though the whole story no one knows
Except for me, and except for you
But I never told you the entire truth

It kills me inside to know you cried
To know I’m the reason I want to die
Not because of you, no never you my dear
But because of me, and my irrational fear

If I rely on anything other than myself
It means I am weak
If I try to go and fix things
I won’t because I’m weak

My mind is never square enough
Not quite up to snuff
You make me realize I’m already dead
There’s no hope for what’s been said

I try to live a daily life
But you hold me my dear dreamy wife
And so the day will have to end
When tonight is the one I spend

It’ll be alone in thought
Never speaking always sought
Loving you is painful true
I just hope you know I love you

I wish things were different, as day turns to night
I wish I wouldn’t drink, to make things alright
I wish I could drink, and put things in sight
Because as of right now, you are my plight

I hate the things I’ve said and done
I love the things you’ve meant
I hate the things I’ve never said
As the day has gone and went

I’ve always cared
You’ve always mattered
You made me know I’m alive

It hurt inside
To know you cried
So to save you more anguish
So to save you more pain
I have to end things
It has to rain

good, i like you with or without booze, you talk much sense, and it is expressed freely with booze, and differently, yet somehow raw..er without, its good, do you see the difference?

I tend to speak more openly and from thought with booze.
So Yeah, I understand.

For some reason, my fingers type faster and more diligently when I'm drunk.

I don't understand it.

its the lack of thought...forethought? its the freedom of expression the booze brings.
booze is such a good word for alcohol! sums it perfectly!

I like the third stanza, otherwise, I think it rhymes a bit too much.
You have a sporadic rhythm though, I like that too.
