Climbing up the sides Reaching for clarity The pills vacate my blood Withdrawal is insanity Scratching at the walls As they close behind my eyes Swimming in tsunamis Ripping tides Muffle my cries A temporary bandaid To stitch over the pain Every second every day My body rendered Trapped Detained I relent And they rock me gently As I slip into a dream Where I can run, jump and dance Not break and bleed at the seems But the body needs to rest From these soul destroying treats So I'll abstain Refrain Remain True turmoil No easy feat Then a week has passed by And the world regains familiarity A deep breath And a stretch to the sun Full of possibilities And new clarity....

A temporary bandaid
Climbing up the sides Reaching for clarity The pills vacate my blood Withdrawal is insanity Scratching at the walls As they close behind my eyes Swimming in tsunamis Ripping tides Muffle my cries A temporary bandaid To stitch over the pain Every second every day My body rendered Trapped Detained I relent And they rock me gently As I slip into a dream Where I can run, jump and dance Not break and bleed at the seems But the body needs to rest From these soul destroying treats So I'll abstain Refrain Remain True turmoil No easy feat Then a week has passed by And the world regains familiarity A deep breath And a stretch to the sun Full of possibilities And new clarity....
