... And there she stood Trying to figure what's bad or good As her palms crashed the gravelled ground She asks herself, 'How did I fall this far?' Pacing herself back and forth In an attempt to sweat the addiction from her pores And her hands shaking and trembling. She pulls out a one hundred dollar bill In exchange for a white powder And as she snorts the powder Falling onto her hands and knees Realising she wrote her own fate.
