You walk into the store and stride down the aisle; you pick me up and try to look casual while you carry me down to the checkout line, You pull out your wallet, you soon will be mine, your friends are observing every move that you make, the clerk asks for your ID You show him a fake, you quickly walk down to the front of the store, your friends are waiting for you, as you step out the door.
You hop in the car and drive away from the shop, then you shut off the ignition and pop off my top, you take a few drinks, and pass me around, thats when you decide to take a drive around town, You turn on your car, and put your foot on the clutch, Im sober, I didnt have very much you say, you pull onto the road, with me by your side, taking occasional sips, as you enjoy the ride,
Then the brakes on the car in front of you squeal, you try hard to stop, but lose control of the wheel, you skid off the road, and you know you have crashed, the dashboard, is shattered, the windshield is smashed, Minutes like hours, your in treacherous pain, that washes your senses, envelops your brain, the screams all around you are faint to your ears, as life flashes before you, your hopes and fears,
Minutes like hours, you plead and pray, Ill never touch it again, just let me live one more day, your mind starts to go dark, it falls apart piece by piece, then you slip into blackness, the pain has finally ceased, Before you entered that store, you should have thought twice, for I am the substance that cost you your life,

This was the week 11 I suggested you switch to week 12, right? Definitely risky telling it from the POV of the beverage involved. Of course, after the accident with the bev all spilled, presumably its thoughts on the matter might be a little scattered and shattered....
