Drawn in to the shadow
Drawn away from the sparks of light
Away from the crowd
Away from the sound
Towards the despair in my head
Towards crawling into bed
Through the fog
Through the sedated confusion
Up from the floor
Up from the next hit, too high now
Time to come down
Time to cut down
Inside my head
Inside my nightmare
Outside my control
Outside of who I’ve known
In between sighs
In between highs
Sharp blade through skin
Sharp pain in heart
Out of control
Out of my mind
