Alcohol took everything from me
Said it was my friend just wait and see
Let’s be exclusive, secretive, no one can know
You’ll use me, I’ll love you, pick you up when you are low
Alcohol took everything from me
My friends, my family, my dignity
I felt alone, isolated and betrayed
Shut in, depressed, lied to – but still you stayed
Alcohol took everything from me
You said I’d be happy but I was so sad you see
Who you really are is a thief so cruel
Laughing at me cuz I was the fool
The fool for thinking your lies were true
But the fool is me, you already knew
Alcohol took everything from me
A hollow shell of myself I kept following your lead
Now I have no one, you wanted it that way
You do it so often, a MASTER at play
