- Music: Barton, Lyrics: McColgan, Casey -

In the face of all that's obvious I continue to wreck my life... So set in my ways it's impossible to do what's good... Smokin, jokin + boozin my time away Just livin for the pain + lies "caught in denial"..

Chorus: Look in the mirror to only see a liars face in front of me I've tried so hard to heed the warnings my heart is turning

On with self slaught, the barfly gives in... once again the bottle is judge + jury He's caught in a struggle that calls for his life... so caught up in his own self destruction, "caught in denial"...

Chorus:

I made my own bed I'll sit in the mess this poison booze lifestyle is a dear friend And I know it's a lie, but it's all that I have I'm going right for the end with total abandon....!

Chorus:

It's real
