*A BOOZE BALLAD*

They party and laugh and dance
Live like they're 20 again
But when they're in that trance
They forget the life that's been lived

They forget about the kids
And feelings? They don't matter.
Just go ahead and place your bids
And see who spills their bladder

Even if I run and cry
And scream with all my might
They won't remember a second
Of what happened last night.

I felt so alone....
They are here, but where did they go?
