whine

 
climbing inside me winding ever tighter
turning on the axis of anxiety
stringing my sentences together laced with pain
linger with my finger on the trigger

thrown in the fray
caught dead in the light
dark speaks within
shut down and curl inward

evil in me spikes the soul
incessant chatter makes me write
cocaine ghosts haunt the grounds
tender honesty is on her own
and I've sent out the hounds hunting truth

listless hate fails to defend me
my emotions public enemy
tired of trying to connect

in the darkness rejects always welcome
sin spins the tale and just like that I'm there
