Numb.

The experience, is intoxicating.
The ability to feel...Nothing.
Oh wow
The wonders, I've found

In spirits not related to ghosts of a past wonton to forget, the percentage is helpful.
The closer to 100%, the closer to completion, the closer to 100% poisoned.

In smoke not caused by outbreak fires, it fills my lungs, take up empty space inside.
The effect is shown to be temporary, the warmth never lasts but then why stop when it comes in packs
Or is that not advertisement

In the nightlife, when stars are king and blacked out color to my senses, ***** day always comes.
My time is short, 8hrs, such a shame i have to wait 16 hours to start again.

Such wonders numb me to my senses, yet still i continue
It is not enough

Such wonders numb me to my restraints, inhibitions are slowly lost, yet still i continue
It is not enough

Such wonders numb me to reality, days are lost, traded for daydreams, yet still I continue
It is not enough

Day in, then day out
It is never enough
To be numb

Because it fails to numb the pain,
I write these words, not because I can't speak them
I'm just currently not able to, i have not lost my voice... you see my tongue has gone numb.

For

I just have my heart stuck in my throat.
