It was kind of like you were injecting me with yourself Except you keep missing the vein. The bruises on my arms became the out-played artsy reminder of your actuality Though you made sure that when the reminder faded and healed you were right there to bring me back into your world of needles and twisted gravity What makes you think you can leave for weeks You're standing near but you've never been further away from my desperate grasp The withdrawal of you is excruciating Like a recovering alcoholic in a liquor store except there's no automatic door or transparent window to reveal a salvation on the other side. The only salvation is taking another hit of you So, that is what I shall do Until the day I overdose on your intoxication .

Hit Me
It was kind of like you were injecting me with yourself Except you keep missing the vein. The bruises on my arms became the out-played artsy reminder of your actuality Though you made sure that when the reminder faded and healed you were right there to bring me back into your world of needles and twisted gravity What makes you think you can leave for weeks You're standing near but you've never been further away from my desperate grasp The withdrawal of you is excruciating Like a recovering alcoholic in a liquor store except there's no automatic door or transparent window to reveal a salvation on the other side. The only salvation is taking another hit of you So, that is what I shall do Until the day I overdose on your intoxication .
