The years before the drugs before the smiles the bright times the easy nights were dark But I only knew darkness so to me it was brighter than the sun There were nights of red bull and vodkas of googling obsessions and losing my personality for a weekend There were days and days of misery my sobs my screams my nightmares my tears your tears I would scream until the air in my lungs were gone I would get down I would run for hours and I would feel my skin crawl The years before the drugs I was cruel a 13 year old girl with a razor sharp tounge hell bent on expressing pain any way possible This experience isnt unique but just because it isnt unique doesn't mean I dont need to apologize for the years before the drugs I'm sorry.

Not your typical drug story
The years before the drugs before the smiles the bright times the easy nights were dark But I only knew darkness so to me it was brighter than the sun There were nights of red bull and vodkas of googling obsessions and losing my personality for a weekend There were days and days of misery my sobs my screams my nightmares my tears your tears I would scream until the air in my lungs were gone I would get down I would run for hours and I would feel my skin crawl The years before the drugs I was cruel a 13 year old girl with a razor sharp tounge hell bent on expressing pain any way possible This experience isnt unique but just because it isnt unique doesn't mean I dont need to apologize for the years before the drugs I'm sorry.
