Unwritten Law - Save Me

Not an uplifting or positive song, and also itā€™s metal, but if youā€™re looking for something relatable and angry, Iā€™d give Beartooth - I Have a Problem a listen.

One of the best songs ever by the best band ever!

Not An Addict- Kā€™s Choice
Hate Me Today- Blue October
I canā€™t listen to the second one. It reminds me of my friend who did eventually overdose and died almost two years ago.
He lied to me a lot about his addiction and disappeared to keep everyone away.

Thatā€™s unfortunate :frowning:
Itā€™s definitely one of those songs I canā€™t listen to either, even though itā€™s a really good song.

Iā€™m pretty sure it wasnā€™t written to be perceived this way but I really like ā€œyouā€™ll be backā€ from Hamilton, I feel like itā€™s addiction singing to the listener.

Gear Daddies Drank so much
Sometimes I swear, I need a drink
And sometimes I swear to god, I just donā€™t stop to think
And I know tomorrow Iā€™ll regret all these things I did
I drank so much tonight I just feel stupid

I didnā€™t go where I planned to get this drunk
And I guess my plan to get up and look for work is sunk
And I know tomorrow Iā€™ll regret all these things I did
I drank so much tonight I just feel stupidā€¦ Randy!

And god only knows why I do these things
And god wonā€™t you tell me why it always ends the same
And still

Sometimes I swear, I need a drink
And sometimes I swear to god, I just donā€™t stop to think
And I know tomorrow Iā€™ll regret all these things I did
I drank so much tonight I just feel stupid
I drank so much tonight I just feel stupid
Sums up my drinking career
