Intoxicating Friend

Please open up
and let me in.
It won't take me long
to go from stranger to friend.

Just for today
then maybe next week.
Only on weekends
It's your weakness I seek.

Into your blood
I'll course through your veins
you'll keep wanting more
until I'm all that remains.

The more time you spend
thinking of no one but me;
The stronger you'll get
the happier you'll be.

When your worries are gone
you'll see that it's true.
Life will be grand
when it's just me and you.

You don't need your job
your kids or your wife.
your friends are all fake
but I'll stay by your side.

If I'm gone when you wake
and your feeling sick and alone
Just come and get me
I'm not far from home.

So now that we've bonded
and I've gained your trust
I'll take control of your life
and turn you into dust.

One glass turned to ten
over time it was more
You just couldn't leave me
now I've settled the score.

I was the best
friend that you found.
The bottle of whiskey
you couldn't put down.
