This is the best that I can do
If I could do better, you know I would for you
Reality now seems so unreal
And the pain’s too much for me to feel
Because I can’t bare knowing it’s over
So won’t you please just lead me on?
And I can’t handle staying sober
So Jack Daniels will be my lover while you’re gone
How the hell did we even get here
And when did things get so unclear?
Why must I always long for your touch
And why does it have to hurt this damn much?
Because I can’t bare knowing it’s over
So won’t you please just lead me on?
And I can’t handle staying sober
So Jack Daniels will be my lover while you’re gone
While you’re gone
And now I’m longing to be sober
So won’t you please just come back home
And baby, I miss my lover
I’m so sick of being alone
And I can’t bare knowing it’s over
Why won’t you just lead me on?
I can’t handle staying sober
Not until you come back home
Come back home

I liked this. There is so much emotions poured into this, in reference to taking up a bad habit, like drinking, to cure loneliness (or whatever emotion it may be). I know the feeling of breaking down and doing something destructive to handle whatever problem I'm having. I'll say one word, and I'll hate myself for it, but you'll understand why I like this poem so much, but you have to think of the passed summer... Kasey.
