The glowing lights paint long shadows on the faces huddled around cluttered tables. Every swig of strong liquor is a shot at forgetting, a fleeting escape from the reality that hunts them outside these dim walls. They come here to numb the ache, seeking escape in the company of strangers who feel it too. But the drinks can only hide the emptiness for so long. The dreams, they're crushed, scattered like empty bottles on the floor. And tomorrow? Tomorrow, the routine starts all over again.
