With the lady in my veins I'm feeling kinda strange
Falling in and out of consciousness
Think the lady wants my brain

My brain is a blob of mush
Nothing but the lady in my brain
To make me go insane

Insane like a bunny in a cage
Insane like my brain
But the lady keeps me sane
Makes my head twirl
sets me in a whirl

My hands shake
Ears ring
Clocks tick tick ticking
Body rocking back and forth
Soon needing another fix

Another fix
Another useless vein
Another drop and I'll be fine

Another sip of liquor
Help me forget
Let the day slip away

Away in another ambulance
Away to another rehab
A place that keeps me real
Out of sight

Out of light

Away from hope



Needing the lady in my vein

To rock me forth and back

To make the clock keep tick tick ticking

To make me pace back and forth

To lay numb on the floor



The floor wrapping around me

Sinking into the stale carpet

Vials of the lady surrounding me

keeping me happy



Nothing like this can be forgotten

The relief I feel when

the rush hits my veins

The need for the lady in my veins

To sweep me off my feet
