12/31

If I had a drink I'd drink it. If I had a drug I'd take it. I'd do anything to peel away the pain I feel right now. It's a mild December 31. Snow cries hard onto flooded earth, But it can't compare to tear-soaked beds Shared by Forbidden lovers again One more time Before we fade away, and turn The page. One last time With a final kiss remember This 12/31. Now I'm the one who sits alone, It's my fault I can't hold my own. You see I'm broken down and bleeding from a Six month Scab we peeled away tonight. In the year's last hour the swan song will Fade at last, And I will sing no more So just let me go. --- 12/31 - The Mayfield Four
