an expression of laonliness caught up in addiction.


Just one more line

Just one more line should do
I tried calling on the phone for you
But knowone answered or knowone was there
and even if you picked up you probably wouldn't care.
I just can't seem to get it right
I try to work things out but it just ends in a fight
I just want to kill the pain
The only way I know how is to intxicate by brain.
I know thats not the cure but I can't bear one more tear
I can't go through one more night alone

just one more line and i'll be there
I lay back and close my eyes
and I can almost smell your hair
I go to a place deep within my mind
where we love eachother and you still treat me kind
i know its not real but its how I deal
Just one more line so I can cope
poisioning my body with this substance called dope

Just one more line and it will all be gone
The eptiness,sadness and fear will all go away
but it doesnt last forever
It comes back the next day
And I am certain my methods are not the right way
But I just need relief.just for today.

Agony is all over this. I've never taken anything illegal into my body but I have coped with pain through an active imagination, books, movies, day dreams and fantacies. It is all ineffective escapes. This reached a place where I've burried all those lonely days and I understand the pain. An excellent piece.
