Coming to see if the boozy boss, after work, spending a lonely night drinking alone, has anyone who feels the same as me

Staying alone in an empty house, so quiet I can hear my own breathing Come on, let’s go

Come keep me company in the breeze, yeah, you When I got to the gate of the compound, I found I’d forgotten my phone

I calmly turned back home to get it Turns out the sign of growing up really is putting all your emotions on mute

At twenty I would cry and demand an answer Now I smile and swallow all the questions I never asked

Let the wine slide down my throat with them “How much?” “Sixty-five.” I chose to sit in the corner, it’s not like I did anything wrong

I just happen to be by myself, that’s all I’ll drink this again today, it even matches my nails so well Is this the taste of loneliness or of freedom

Don’t be fooled by how small it is, it’s really strong Seventy proof, and some of it is still hot off the grill

I like to chow down on meat when I’m sad Maybe the heart and the stomach are very close, once the stomach is full

The heart won’t hurt as much Sure enough, good food makes dopamine This bite of kidney is absolutely worthy of seventy-proof liquor

With green pepper and century egg Honestly, I’ve been pretty down lately

I really wish the world would forget me for a while Or that some fragments of my memory would just disappear

Like a child who does homework wrong He wants to tear up the whole page But what changes if he tears it up

You might still write it wrong again, so I guess everything’s destined I was actually about to cry

Then my big chicken wings arrived So I might as well be happy for a bit Life still needs to be healed by good food

Aaaahhh
