Rock bottom
f'Hurt people hurt people
To put it short and simple I am a broken woman breaking things
Everything I touch goes to shit
the whole "hell in a hand basket" expression
Cheap caked up concealer to hide the tracks, when I love myself the very least
My life is no longer recognizable to me
spiraling down I find myself drowning in this depression
I've lost the grit to speak up for my life
Long gone is the hope that there will even be a life to speak up for by the time that I'm done
Whatever snapped this time must've been a doozy
The equivalent to the destruction I've allowed to happen here
Would be similar to saying fuck the world and this life
and pulling the trigger of this loaded gun
I'm in too deep, I knew this months ago, there are no take backs
It's basically an involuntary requirement to stick around and see this all the way through
Will I astound myself & everyone else by pulling out one last trick from my survival tactics bag
Or does it really end here with you
Smoke filled heads, disillusioned & obsessed with the presence of one another
Oh sweet deja vu
I've lived this scene many moons ago
This lifestyle wasn't shit back then and it aint shit now
The beautiful life I had built plus 12 years of recovery straight out the window
Its dark and unsettling here in my head
as i watch pieces of me break off and disappear a little more everyday
Everyone was right all those years, warnings of the slippery slope I was walking
I want out of this goddamit
I want to get back to the real me
I just cannot find the way
My heart is turning black, similar to the tar I smoke
the tender parts of me replaced with bitterness and lack of empathy
where emotions used to overflow, I used to feel everything so deeply
Replaced with a black empty hole
numbing myself has become my new specialty
my stomach churns and vomit threatens to break the barrier that my tenacity has held in place thus far
when I think about all I've heedlessly given up to be laying here with you
oh what a dream we've created together I think in absolute sarcasm
I was already well on my way to the bottom
you just helped accelerate the process
and made the way down more pleasant of a view
Now in this moment it's all rushing in'
I can feel every last ounce of this rock bottom hell
Sobbing, gasping for breath at the realization of my situation and the end of this that has now arrived
our lust confused for love was simply passing this .time less lonesomely
its the aftermath and consequences of my personal shit that I'm afraid I won't survive
I could continue laying here with you in this drug induced bliss
let the world pass by with both of us too high to even care
or i can crawl out of this hole and face my own self destruction
take accountability & admit that i'm sick.. yes ... i think ill start there
