Текст песни: I Drink + перевод

I drink to drive away all the years I have hated

The ambitions frustrated that no longer survive

I drink day after day to the chaos behind me

As I drink to remind me that I still am alive

So I give you a toast to the endless confusions

To the lies and delusions that have swallowed my life

Yes I give you a toast to the wine and the roses

To the deadly cirrhosis that can cut like a knife

I drink to catch a glimpse of the love we degraded

Of a life that has faded like the vanishing moon

I drink, I see the dream to my waiting desire

To the passionate fire that has burned out so soon

I drink and I drown in a promise you made me

All the times you betrayed me in your anger and spite

When you took on the town, when you looked for the action

When you took satisfaction like a whore in the night

I drink to make believe that my life is worth living

That the Gods are forgiving at the end of the day

I drink because I grieve for dreams when we started

For the innocent hearted who got lost on the way

For the children unborn, for their dead phantom faces

For our sterile embraces in the tomb of your bed

I drink and I mourn for the harvest that failed

For the ship that has sailed, for the hope that is dead

I drink to find the place where the darkness can hide me

Till the terror inside me can at last disappear

I drink to my disgrace till oblivion claims me

Till there’s nothing that shames me, till I’m blind to my fear

Yes I drink till I burst, till my own degradation

Till the edge of damnation that is waiting below

Yes I drink with a thirst that destroys and depraves me

Engulfs and enslaves me and will never let go

I drink until I’m lost and the street is my hideout

Where I will beat my pride out till I’m gasping for breath

I drink to count the cost of a life I despair for

Until God hears my prayer for a compassionate death

So I spit up my bile at the Gods who demean us

At the silence between us, at the love none can save

For a life that is vile, for a soul that is ailing

For a body that’s failing as it heads for the grave

I drink without a care

Drink because I must

Drink for my despair

I drink to your disgust

I drink, drink, drink, by God I drink

Yes I drink
