#unnumb
I numb pain by getting high
Bounce from drug to drug
Wish I was stronger than I am
Want to get clean and be done
I keep hoping motivation will blossom
Positive train of thought
Guess temptation is more seductive
Giving it all I've got
My skin senses familiar stinging
Night comes; I succumb
I tumble down the rabbit hole
The place my conscience is dumbed
My hands move of their own accord
Hope I soon gain control
My cold heart is seeking comfort
From the agony hindering me from being whole
I do not know any other way
To stifle the ache of being alive
Than consuming toxic substances
The irony of methods I use to survive
So near to dying completely inside
Want to unnumb emotions
Remembering how I'd always complain about the flood
Now I wish for those sensitive oceans
