Lyrics:
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
Repeat the cycle everyday I gotta start with a drink
My life been getting sorta crazy and I don’t wanna think
I look myself right in the mirror and I don’t even blink
Then I get angry take the rest and pour it right in the sink
I know where this road goes
alcohol ain’t my friend but i keep drinking cause these demons roam and follow me round everywhere I go
it clouds my mind and soul
it turns my heart cold
but I keep drinking cause it makes me feel like I’m not alone
I having problems my pride won’t let me reach out
Looking at this bottle having nothing but doubt
Don’t wanna drink but it keeps coming around and around and around
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I know I need to quit
I gotta do better
Example to these kids
Cause they’re watching when I’m there
But I’m scared
Cause I been chasing the man that I am when I start to drink
He’s cocky confident and he don’t give a damn what you think
This world is beating me down and it’s
pushed me right to brink
I take a shot every time because man it helps me escape
I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me
I want to talk to somebody but I feel no one relates
I need I better now
I think I’ve lost my way
I’m having battles with faith
It’s painted right on my face
I hope better times are coming
No chase but I’m still running
I gotta take control
And I won’t stop for nothing
Dear God this is my test
Promise that I’ll do my best
Just help with this pain I feel and pressure that is on my chest
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I'm 7 days sober today. It might not sound like much but from someone that drank every day for the last 10 years it's huge. It's a battle every day but it's a battle I'll fight. Edit: Find God and find yourself. There's hope. Quit putting it off until tomorrow. Start today and stay strong. The support on this post is unreal. If I can anybody can. Much love ❤️

I'm an 18 yr old kid who doesn't have issues with alcohol, but my dad recently has become a major addict after the passing of my mom 2 months ago. On top with the stress he deals with at work, he comes home and immediately starts to drink. I keep telling him to be strong and not use these bad outlets but I still see he's struggling. I showed him this song and he immediately started crying and promised me he will try to do better. So Dax, thank you for your strong words and your amazing music. It not only is touching the life of my dad, but many others around the world. Edit: I wasn't expecting so many nice replies. God bless everyone!

I'm 7 years clean, my wife is 6 years clean. I've been held hostage, lost my son to the ministry, lost the cars, the house, the money, the business, my wife left to a life on the street where she spent 18 months escaping extreme domestic and gang violence. She ended up pregnant and clawed her way out, she had to escape for two now. we spent 5 years apart healing in recovery. we've been back together for 2 years now and after losing all, today, we closed on a home. I run this podcast full time thanks to a bunch of great organizations in my community. I have a life I never saw coming. its possible. It's an epic adventure. We can recover. Gimme a like if you think Dax should jump on the pod

2 months sober from a generational curse! Dad took my under his wing for drinking when I was 16. 27y old recovering from a 6 pack a day with pint. Had my first kid last year refuse to expose her to this and I want to live for her. 11 year addiction goodbye 👏

I saw myself in those lyrics. Thank you Dax! I've been sober for a little over 5 months now after 7 years of hard liquor and drugs. I promise everyone dealing with addiction that life is so much better on the other side! Reach out to your loved ones and ask for help. It's hard to overcome alone. Take care ❤

10 days sober today. I’m in AA and working to stay sober. My wife left with the kids 7 days ago due to the last day I drank. I’ve got to get better for them and be the man, husband & father that they deserve. This song hits home on so many levels. Thank you for putting this out there. Update: 63 days sober…One day at a time.

I'm a respiratory therapist in a covid ICU. I was 20 months sober before everything hit. I fell back into this bullshit because of PTSD. I chose this morning 04/12/22 to pour everything down the drain because I found this song and I didn't feel so alone. ❤️ here's to bigger and better times we all deserve ❤️ Edit as of today 4/20/22 I am 1 week sober. Thank you all for the kind words and positivity *edit* today is July 25th, and I am indeed still sober. If I can do it, so can you. One day at a time. Reach out, get help, you're never alone ❤️
