emme oneill’s “Drinking Problems” is like an excerpt from the diary we keep hidden in the depths of our mind. This raw, vulnerable single about hardships and complex dynamics in life and love takes you on an emotional journey from start to finish. emme searches for answers to life’s most complicated questions that seem to be a rite of passage in modern-day romance. “Drinking Problems” is a love-letter to toxic relationships that you put in a pretty envelope and set on fire.. letting all the negativity and turmoil go up in flames. Relationships that leave you troubled, your mind swirling, and your deepest scars bleeding seem to be a dime a dozen these days, and they can feel impossible to understand, let alone move on from. There is no guidebook on how to reclaim the person you once were and the hope you used to wear proudly, but sometimes the best path to healing, the best medicine, and the best chance at freedom is to look in the mirror with admiration, fake a smile until it becomes real, forgive someone who’s never apologized, and let the pain be an inspiration to fall back in love with yourself, and let the heartbreak lead you to a wiser, stronger version of yourself who will never again settle for less than what you deserve.
