There's a shadow in the corner
A part of me that used to be
It's always one drink away
From devouring
As hard as I might
It's still not far away
I can't give up the fight
Once I drop my guard
It's right by my side
Like a broken glass shard
Trying to put the chipped pieces together
But this is one cup I don't want complete
This is something that I shattered
In hopes that I would defeat
The darkness that's a part of me
But it's still there
One drink away
I can feel its stare.
