[Verse] Tell me when you know that it's too much I guess it's when you can't really say It's always too much when it starts I know that it was always gonna end this way I should've stopped when I was startin' But how do you stop it when it's already startin'? Tell me when you know that it's too much I guess it's when you can't really say [Chorus] So I tried to quit 'Cause the anxiety is getting me I can't talk And I can't sleep Unless I take somethin' But if I take somethin' I get so anxious And I can't talk So I drink somethin' Now I can't stop drinkin' [verse] [Verse 2] Lost in the fog of another night I see the bottle, a golden brewed sickly light Promises I've made are breaking apart In the glass, reflections of my weary heart The cycle spins, and I'm feeling trapped Every sip's a step, a stumble, a quick elapse Leading me down the same old path Trying to drown in the aftermath. [Chorus] So I tried to quit 'Cause the anxiety is getting me I can't talk And I can't sleep Unless I take somethin' But if I take somethin' I get so anxious And I can't talk So I drink somethin' Now I can't stop drinkin' [Bridge] The grip gets tight, but I'm the stronger Fighting demons, trying to last a bit longer. Finding freedom beyond this aching thirst, One step at a time, through the darkness, the darkness. [spoken] ambrosia, of the hop's variety. Stop. Enough. [instrumental, off-key, fast, airy] [Chorus] So I tried to quit 'Cause the anxiety is getting me I can't talk And I can't sleep Unless I take somethin' But if I take somethin' I get so anxious And I can't talk So I drink somethin' Now I can't stop drinkin'
