Zoe Elsworth - Bad Party

2014-06-13 1

The world seems to spin
What was in that drink
Whisky, wine, maybe gin
It's impossible to think

Where'd the party go
And what are all those lights
Maybe heaven, hard to know
Something here's not right

All the lights are gone now
I hear voices all around
I manage to speak 'how'
Now familiar faces and sounds

The nurse says I'm lucky
A very close brush with death
The party ended yucky
There was alcohol on all our breaths

The party was a week ago
Three of my friends are dead
How many like me, hard to know
I spent weeks hiding my head
