I cut the tip of my finger off.
The pain took my mind off of the problems in my life for a bit.

I took a few pills.
The high took my mind off of the problems in my life for a bit.

Oh, so it only matters when you see it happen. I'll hide my self destruction in these gulps - just for you.
I can't lie to you guys. I'm hiding the truth from myself, not anyone else. I hate the way I hate being sober.
