We crucify ourselves

 

Daily
Needles slow crackle
Record spins

Comfortably numb
Let's face it folks
Everybody's crutches
Support for the crux all carry

Time
Ticking away the slow burn
Coffin nails overflow
One more cigarette for that never ending road

The dandy who ate candy
Was shocked to find
Liquor is far quicker

She held him close
As if to hold in some embrace
Whispered sweet nothings
Followed up with do you trust me?

Hooked him up to an IV drip
Rode him all through the night
Fast paced corazon racing
Amphetamine fuck

Society
If you know how to ask
Provides one with all the highs
Lows , laughs and screams
Even on repeat prescription
accepted drug dealers know the score
Safe effective don't mention the consequences
