Will people think I'm weird now the fog has cleared
On the first day of the rest of my sweet days
And though my head seems somuch clearer
The drinking made us nearer
I guess that's the give and take of any change
I feel scared and insecure, unconfident, unsure
Of whether it's a fight that I can win
Scared you think that I'm pathetic, or simply a heretic
Scared that we won't stay friends
In my heart a revolution, in my head so much confusion
Trying to think f different ways of having fun
So I'm giving up drinking and basically I'm thinking
The hardest battle has just begun
See the world has too much pressure from men of little leisure
The men who build the power, guide the cranes
And so we turn to boozing because we're scared we're losing
And the nectar makes us happier and brave
I'm not trying to knock it
Just saying I must stop it
If I want to keep two feet out of the grave
And what of my frustrations in those awkward situations
When everybodys laughing except me
Can I rise above it or even learn to love it
As much as I did alcoholically
I'd like to live a long life
A happy and a strong life
I know there's got to be another way
They say changing is growing but I've no way of knowing
What kind of world awaits me next Tuesday
'oh just have a drink' the smiling ones will think
and that's fair enough if that's whats right for you
but I've had one too many headaches and my memory's down the drain
and my health is screaming 'you'll die if you do'
