Fiend to The Nicotine
Taking it out of the pack
thinking I should put it back
putting it in between my lips
as addictive as those alcohol sips
the pain it brings to my friends and family
putting these chemicals in my body is just insanity
all I feel is the cancer drowning me
with every puff of smoke that I see
I am a slave to the nicotine
I was thirteen when I became a fiend
so scared of dying
family members around me crying
It scares me so much
cigarettes are just my crutch
I don't know how to put them down
like I said, my lungs are starting to drown...

Powerless but Powerful
Some people think rape jokes are funny
but fuck what you think
someone grabbing your hair and calling you honey
your face starts to turn pink
you just wanted some alcohol
when the black SUV pulls up,
you realize this is you on the wrong path starting to fall
you get in the car and he pulls out a cup
you don't mean shit to him, just an object and that's all
he grabs your hair, locks the doors and pulls you down
you don't have your phone to make that 911 call
the muscles in your face fall to a frown
you swear to him that you will call the cops...

clueless.
She doesn’t have a clue that she’s beautiful,
She thinks she’s everything but,
She acts like she has it all together
But all it is, is a huge front
She means the world to many people
And she means everything to me
But because of how shes been treated in the past,
She fails to see the truth
The truth of how amazing she is
The truth of how beautiful she is
She’s perfect in my eyes
And I only wish she could see it herself
But so many people have fucked up,
Fucked up her perspective on herself,
The way she sees the outside version of...

My Mindset
How come in my mind,
When drugs aren’t the answer it is always suicide.
I just want to end it all
And punch my fist into a fucking wall
I want to be high as shit forever
Because in my mind escaping reality that way sounds so clever
I shouldn’t be around society
Because all I do is give everyone close to me depression and anxiety
Just get me away from this fucking shit show
I wanted to leave a very long time ago
And please promise that you won’t begin to cry
When I tell you all I want to do is...

Sunset
It’s crazy how quickly such a beautiful sunset can end,
Just like how my normal teenage life never began
They all stare because they know I am on drugs,
And all they can say is "she’s exactly like the rest of all the wannabe thugs."
But they couldn’t be more wrong, it’s crazy,
My life is not about catching butterflies and picking fucking daisy’s
How is it possible to be so ignorant
Usually their thoughts about me are insignificant
The fact that they think I’m so damn stupid as if I were three
But really...

The Great Escape
I am trying to hide
From everything on the inside,
escaping by getting high is what I do best
because I am always feeling so damn depressed.
They try to tell you drugs are bad
When in reality they make you feel more glad.
They take away all of the pain
Right as the drugs go straight to your brain.
As your face gets hot,
You begin to have very complex thoughts
The feeling of stumbling when you walk,
The slurred words when you try to talk
I love everything about getting high,
...

All I want
~~I look up at the stars,
My vision is blurry so I can’t see that well,
I’m so high I don’t even care about all of the scars
I feel like my mind has been unlocked from a living hell.
I am so high,
I feel like I can touch the sky,
But when I come back down,
I would much rather drown.
Getting high is what I live for
Because when I take the first hit, I begin to soar
I love the feeling of being numb
Even if it means always...
