drink to drown

blind my eyes with fire but cardboard burns too quick
the empty satisfaction which is making me sick
rise to fall
live to die
hug to hide
drink to drown
smile to frown
although all thats in my mind is the smile and hug
not thinking that this cycle is in itself a drug
escape the moment and the past
there is no future this will always last
last for the night until i'm faced with realization
realizing truths in the back of my head
about thoughts i thought were dead
this river hits rocks on its way to its goal
but those rocks are grounded and don't require a toll
