Flamboyant life
Boozing
Addicted to gambling

And ailing business
Has made my life a mockery

Things has gone awry

As far as the ocean can be seen
That’s the distance if I could ever justify my sins
Tonight
My head is clogged
Soon it will lead to hemorrhage
No more sympathy
And empathy
For me
And for them
The ones whom I loved
Who are now sleeping peacefully
In their rooms
Without knowing
