Trying to postpone the inevitable...

I'll have a beer;
Maybe ten and three;
Then maybe I'll be near
To forgetting all my misery

There's a piece here;
Some more over there;
Fragments of every fear
Are scattered everywhere

You say you care;
Yet you are never around;
Giving you everything that I dare
Is apparently not enough, so I have found

I must try and move on;
And save what dignity I've got;
The cloak of aloofness I must don
For the patience of Job I have not

And when you ask
To where have I gone away
The response given, from behind the mask
Shall be, "where never again will I be led astray."
