I am drinking again, oh
I'm on my seventh cold glass of gin, oh
Life is a tribute to you
And so is dying
And drinking in this way
To die is what I'm trying
I also try to keep my looks
In case an angel loves me
And lifts me up with angel hooks
To someplace high above (me)
I am drinking again, oh
I'm on my ninth cold glass of gin, oh
And people argue with me
But I have never been stronger
Nor held so strong a feeling
Inside of me longer
With no one at all knowing
O but I know
Just what I need to live this life
Oh...
And all of us here
Raise our eyes and our spirits
Our hands and our voices
That your ears may hear it
I am drinking again and I toast you
Who will never know what it is that I do

I missed the mountain goats in Denver,so I drove from Kansas City,to Lawrence, saw him at The Grandada. His Michael Jackson impression is uncanny but I think he did it as a reason to moonwalk across the stage.

3 years of toxicity. ended up friends again. told me she loved me, flirted etc. when we hung out again at last, after doing all of the relationship shit for hours straight, after messages from her like 'we're forever intertwined/ ill never find somebody like you again' she admitted that she never loved me she 'thought she did but only found out what love really was with her next boyfriend'. if you knew how our relationship was, the love/hate insanity all from her -- all of the sweetest things ever said and sweetest gazes ever caught; id continued to hope it was that more than the other side. after doing all the relationship shit again, told me she never loved me. damn. the worst part was i knew it was truer than any truth when she said it. only msgd me after she broke up with an ex. i think as a guy you never really truly stop loving your first love. so sad very few of us get it right first time around. she is flawed but she is perfect, and she will never love me. she turned me into an alcoholic bc she was, now i still live with it. alcoholism and every bit of all the rest. i have nothing and no one and want nothing but her. once i wanted her it was only her and it never stopped. life is hard but sometimes you just have to live w shit and find a way to carry on anyway. i want to be a good example to somebody some day. i used to think i got to relate to movies like blue jay, sad songs like no children by the mountain goats. turns out i didnt.

Drinking again....never stopped. Good for you for trying to get cleaned up...or certainly singing about it. Beautiful song...I think the tempo drags a hair...change the tempo just slightly. Have the guitars push the beat and have the drums drag....vocals can wander. The dissonance of the vocals should be changed to a chorus of victory, not a dirge of failure. So much for coaching someone that wrote something from the heart.
