[Verse 1]
Every night you lose a little sympathy
And it kills me
All I want is for you to hear me out
I'm not the enemy
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t you know that we're on the same side
And all of your demons are mine?
[Chorus]
You pick your poison
Let it run deep
You do it in front of me
You don't even see it
When you can’t walk straight
You're pushing my love away
But when they all leave, I'll show
And when you give up, I won't
[Verse 2]
You say you're changing, you're different now
But you got your hands on the bottle, mm

Can’t you see?
[Pre-Chorus]
Don’t you know we're all on the same side
And all of your demons are mine?
[Chorus]
You pick your poison
Let it run deep
You do it in front of me
You don’t even see it
When you can't walk straight
You're pushing my love away
'Cause when they all leave, I’ll show
And when you give up, I won't
[Bridge]
And what hurts the most
You don't even notice
You don't even know
When I come running home
'Cause you've lost a friend
'Cause you've done it again
And when they all leave, I'll show
When you give up, I won't
[Chorus]
'Cause you pick your poison
Let it run deep
You do it in front of me
You don't even see it
When you can't walk straight
You're pushing my love away
And when they all leave, I'll show
And when you give up, I won't

I wrote this song nearly 5 years ago and I’ve always wanted to release it, not to compete but just for the ears that may find peace with hearing something they might be going through (like I was when I wrote this).
