As time went by
Your addiction only grew
And after some time
You’re not the same mother I knew
Almost a bottle a day
Your memory grows weak
And every time I repeat myself
My words you’ve never heard me speak
And for the both of us
I must remain the one who’s strong
And even though you doubt me
I know you’re the one who’s wrong

These ideas won’t leave my head
I don’t know what to do
I’ve let these issues pile up
Because they’re too difficult to work through
My thoughts work overtime
But I’m ready to clock out
And the more hours I put in
The more I find myself in doubt
I’m searching for a solution
That works for everyone involved
And the more I dance around it
The more it can’t be solved
School never once prepared me
For these answers I can’t provide
Because how am I to respond
To a problem that’s unidentified
