Emotional Morphine

by pyxell

Step on the scale fidget fidget "Three Digits!" f a t Shuffle back to Your Room p r i s o n  c e l l 8:00AM Drag yourself to the main desk The Morning Medication line is long today m i n d l e s s Pretty pills fill your palm They have changed colors today They are all shapes, large and colorful c y a n i d e PLUNK PLUNK PLUNK They dive into your empty stomach Swim in acid and glide through your veins Emotional Morphine- You await the glorious numbness s a n i t y and still you crave the blade. b l o o d
