I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I was sixteen and blowing my mind When I was seventeen and My weight was that of a child I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I drank for days on end to seek A piece of mind that never came Losing my innocence by the week I thought I'd hit rock bottom when My closest friends were blades And I lay in a hospital bed After taking too many pills again I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I spent hours holding my head Over toilet bowls, or when I prayed to wake up dead I thought I'd hit rock bottom when Laxatives ate my money and My body and I let visions of Maddening girls take me by the hand But now I see I had further to fall I had more to lose in you Now I can't even take those actions I have nothing more to do. © Tara India.

I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I was sixteen and blowing my mind When I was seventeen and My weight was that of a child I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I drank for days on end to seek A piece of mind that never came Losing my innocence by the week I thought I'd hit rock bottom when My closest friends were blades And I lay in a hospital bed After taking too many pills again I thought I'd hit rock bottom when I spent hours holding my head Over toilet bowls, or when I prayed to wake up dead I thought I'd hit rock bottom when Laxatives ate my money and My body and I let visions of Maddening girls take me by the hand But now I see I had further to fall I had more to lose in you Now I can't even take those actions I have nothing more to do. © Tara India.
