Enough to Drink

If not now then when
Will you make it to the end
Will you get up off the fence
And cease this air of false pretence
Have you lost your sense of worth
Or was it lacking at your birth
A vicious tongue disguised as mirth
Will leave you face down in the earth
Will you turn the other cheek
At the risk of seeming weak
Is it truth you truly seek
Amidst the lies you daily speak
Are you the same inside
At the fading of the light
When the liquor takes it hold
And swallows up your broken soul
Sitting here alone I think
I might have had enough to drink
Just a name without a meaning
Or a songbird with no songs to sing
