but you choose to do worse instead
and when worse comes to worst
you blame fate
and find a bottle to forget.
This is madness,
she said.
And he said,
yes.

You could get help
but you choose harm instead
and when you wake up in the ER

and that nobody gets it.

but you choose to stay the same instead
and when the mistakes repeat
you admit defeat
by way of the hand you were dealt.
You're fucking crazy,
she said.
And he said,

aren't always available to me.

but I can tell you it's tried to kill me before.
This isn't gonna work out,
she said.
And he said,
no.
