With this last drop I know the memories disappear
Going a step further to erase the fear
Depression is usually the killer
But these toxins are a different filler
Not living for tomorrow just want the now
I’m off a Fifth ready to ride out on the town
Sip after sip just chilling my veins
Call it what you want but with more I release my chains
I’ll keep going no need to encourage, slight work
Get help, I don’t care to I need to see where the evils lurk
Functional I always am way too much to lose so I proceed
A brick wall waiting my arrival destined from the planted seed
Has anyone stepped in to intervene the pain
Actually nope they just watch as I fall below the curve not accessing the strain
Numb to “are you ok”
Dulled by “itll get better”
Scarred from “the only way to get better is to talk about it”
Well let me tell you first hand this liquid has cured
Cured more than any person with a degree could fathom
Won’t even come close to understand why I do what I feel is natural
Remember the fifth I mention hell I’ve gone through my 3rd and its only been 2 hours
DARE ME TO DRIVE!?!?!
Give me my keys I no longer wish to sit around waiting for help
Rather than wait ill just go find it
May hit a couple of bumps on the way
Hell one of those bumps may create my brighter day
You wanted the insights of my mind well here they are
Now deal with the monster that comes
Tame him you wouldn’t dare
Man it’s getting bad the night just started and he’s not stopping
It’s feels great not to feel at all
Dead to emotions when I get this way and I have the dark light mixture swirling in this bottle
If they ever find me flipped over somewhere know I hid my friend under the seat
