"Psyche-Delia Smith And The Art Of Making A Good Space Cake"

Oh Delia this time you have outdone yourself  
Just for this occasion  
You have created another famous  
Psychedelic cake creation  
One bite and I am there  
The air bubbles becomes chocolate  
Melting into a plexus of nothingness  
Bubbles pop into interplexing harmonics of sound  
Horizons of vibrant colors pulsate like quasars  
Over a dyeing star  
Planets dance like fire over a thousand exploding suns  
Storks grow from the ground and perform multiple dance routines  
At that moment I take leave of my body  
Rising up past the ceiling though the flat above  
Into space, into infinity and beyond  
Existing between time and space  
Losing all linear perspective.  
Like energy i am siphoned back to my own body  
I am her and her me  
Covered in crumbs and bits  
"Shit I got tits"
The montage ends  
The ride comes to a complete stop  
Everything returns to normal or does it?  
Bollocks to Mr Kipping  
Psychedelia smith makes extremely good space cakes!!

So this is what I have come to
Needles and pills just to get me through
Hurting the people that love me the most
Doing anything for that next dose

I am self medicating myself
I really don't give a shit about my health
The marks on my arm are always a reminder
This demon inside me has me in such a grinder

I wasn't always like this
I've been like this since the devils first kiss
I did have big dreams and then this took place
I already know I am such a disgrace

I'm hurting so bad, my muscles feel like a melee  
I can just feel myself starting to decay
I crave the sting of that precious syringe
I am way past going on a binge

I am beginning to wonder if there is a way out
Is there even a point in living? I am beginning to doubt
The only feeling I know is the rush and the warm blood after
To me this is such a beautiful disaster

I love the pills, but they don't love me
But i still just poke myself and count to three
I need to get out, its plain to see
But how can I save myself from me?
