Sobering Up
The treadmill chase
Can’t catch up
Waving good bye
Time to be honest
Before it’s too late
And I believe my own lie
Sobering up from a 9 year high
Hahaha look at me lie
There were plenty of lows
Addictions a life of yoyos
Ups and downs
Smiles and frowns
Distorted mirrors and miserable clowns
Receiptless little bags
With hidden price tags
Can’t catch up
Waving good bye
Time to be honest
Before it’s too late
And I believe my own lie
Sobering up from a 9 year high
Hahaha look at me lie
There were plenty of lows
Addictions a life of yoyos
Ups and downs
Smiles and frowns
Distorted mirrors and miserable clowns
Receiptless little bags
With hidden price tags

The last three lines are the best. You definitely could expand on this but it gets the point across. I want more despair. ha.

This has a very interesting tone. A little comedic, but maybe that's because of the rhyme scheme. Well done.
