Lyrics:

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

Repeat the cycle everyday I gotta start with a drink
My life been getting sorta crazy and I don’t wanna think
I look myself right in the mirror and I don’t even blink
Then I get angry take the rest and pour it right in the sink
I know where this road goes
alcohol ain’t my friend but i keep drinking cause these demons roam and follow me round everywhere I go
it clouds my mind and soul
it turns my heart cold
but I keep drinking cause it makes me feel like I’m not alone
I having problems my pride won’t let me reach out
Looking at this bottle having nothing but doubt
Don’t wanna drink but it keeps coming around and around and around

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

ELLE KING:

Another morning when my memories wavy
don't hate me I got to faded again
I try to fight it but the loneliness breaks me
can you blame me
the bottles been my friend
its gotta be sadistic
or maybe masochistic
everynight I just stay twisted
cause the only ones that listens
is that sativa endo
patron and casimagos
i didnt mean to, but I need to

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

I know I need to quit
I gotta do better
Example to these kids
Cause they’re watching when I’m there
But I’m scared
Cause I been chasing the man that I am when I start to drink
He’s cocky confident and he don’t give a damn what you think
This world is beating me down and it’s
pushed me right to brink
I take a shot every time because man it helps me escape
I’m taking care of these people but no one takes care of me
I want to talk to somebody but I feel no one relates
I need I better now
I think I’ve lost my way
I’m having battles with faith
It’s painted right on my face
I hope better times are coming
No chase but I’m still running
I gotta take control
And I won’t stop for nothing
Dear God this is my test
Promise that I’ll do my best
Just help with this pain I feel and pressure that is on my chest

I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted
I got wasted cause I didn’t wanna deal with myself tonight
My thoughts get drowned until I feel alright
I keep drinking til I’m someone I don’t recognize
I got wasted

Dax is the reason that I'm alive and sober today. I heard a clip of this from tiktok, then came here....i broke down crying on my knees with a bottle of Bacardi in my hands shaking. I heard it April 25 2023 and checked into rehab the next day after pouring out the bottle. I'm over the 9 month hurdle now. Thank you Dax, this song saved me.

[RachelRosenkoetter-xygu]

❤❤❤ I'm 100% positive this song is the reason I was able to end my 22 year struggle with alcohol. 163 days sober today.

[sheilahelms]

I am 11 days and 1 month short of 13 years of sobriety. Today I had the strongest craving I’ve had in two years.
I was about to give in and out of desperation I clicked on YouTube to search for something stronger than I was. I found this song and listened to it on a loop until and while I walked through my feels until I came out the other side. My gratitude is beyond words. Keep it going Dax!

[JBra]

This dude needs to be pushed way more than the mainstream radio artists.

[andrewdwyer]

Dear Dax,
On your last video I wrote you and I had just lost my brother to addiction.
On this video, I just lost my other brother within hours of writing this.
Why do I tell you this?
Because I go to your song and I just listen to it over and over and over because it helps me drown out the noises of the fucking demons that never leave me alone.
I am so grateful for you and for your music, I truly thought I was the only person who felt this way until I saw your videos. They help me. I’m still sober, I’ve got over four years now and I think the way I will honor my brothers passing is by loving people as much as he did. I’m truly grateful for your music I really am.

[darvink]

Whoever’s reading this, i pray that whatever your going through gets better and whatever your struggling with or worrying about is going to be fine and that everyone has a fantastic day! Amen

[dctheone]

Today, Dax is recognized for positively impacting people's lives through music. His greatness will have an impact for decades to come. much love from Africa 🌍

[traviswatkins]

Why don't songs like this get air time on the radio? There are people out here that need to hear they're not alone. It doesn't always help for it to be the people we know telling us. Sometimes, it hits hardest when you hear it while you're alone, thinking no one knows or cares.

[zacharyblakeney]

This song isn't just an alcoholism song this sound hit me deep and I'm a recovering meth addict going on 4 years strong!!! In the past 4 years iv married my best friend and United our two daughters as one and now the good lord has blessed us with a lil boy that will bless us with his presence Oct 4 and I'm beyond excited!! Music like yours helps me make it every day!!!! Have a blessed one #Dax

[garypease]

I'm coming up on 2.5 years of sobriety. Getting sober was the best decision I ever made. It wasn't easy for a knucklehead like me. I had to do the work. It's been one hell of a ride. And my life today is freaking awesome. Thank God I surrendered when I did. I was losing the battle. It takes what it takes. And it took a lot. Cars, friends, family, and a beautiful house, but worst of all, it took my sanity. Unfortunately, relapse was a part of my story.
I have learned that I had to go through it.
All of it.
I can't.
He can.
So, I think I will let him.
Great song. Thanks for being part of my recovery.❤

[mike]

I'm 55. Never heard of Dax before. Not my type of music. I came across this song on YouTube while watching alcohol related content. I'm blown away. I cried streaming tears. You sir, have given me new appreciation for modern music. Keep up the great work!

[tahraethestoryteller]

Can we give a hand to Elle King as well? Her voice was just as impactful as Dax and so often the person singing in the back chorius gets shafted of the credit especially when it comes to women and mental health

[bradleystahl]

I watched this so many times it helps my sobriety. Thanks Dax I'm 9 months sober today this song hit me hard.

[brentlyx]

Thank you Dax. I’m 14 and my dad loved this song he passed away 3 weeks ago.

[kyleeconnley]

Jesus loves you all. I pray for all the lost souls in the world. I have my struggles daily but I know Jesus is on our side. We got this🙏

[petermerriam]

I'm 39 years old, have had a pretty difficult life. Alcohol took my parents, but not me.
Dax is truly one of a kind, an inspiration to humanity and hope. I have found his music, lyrics and attitude incredible. To listen to fans, be humble and have the strength to be proud to be different is incredible. It screams hope and happiness at all the demons our lives create.
Thank you for your music, thank you for helping me keep on fighting even though I feel so old.

[muffin]

WE LISTENED TO THIS IN MY REHAB AND I'VE LISTENED TO IT ALMOST EVERYDAY SINCE. IM 48 DAYS SOBER TODAY AND MAN IT FEELS GOOD. THANKS FOR THE GREAT SONG.

[JT]
