I Think so I Drink by Pete Vaughan
Smile and the world laughs outside
money talks as the faces lie
you give your love they take it all from you
A friend in need’s your friend, don’t say it isn’t
I think so I drink I don’t drown
I drink ‘cause I think I am
I think so I drink oblivion come down
I drink ‘cause I think I am
The power they fought for, the freedom you taste
the suffering they brought was their weakness and waste
the world you enjoy is a prison of escape
the wall’s groan hope but you know it’s a fake
An easy day I read tomorrow
accept these gifts ignore the sorrow
the walls groan hope but life is truth
who’s your only friend? Don’t say that isn’t true
oblivion come down
Short Bio: Pete Vaughan began his transition across this life west of London, England. Loved and lost, once Peel Sessioned; now between just about everything.
