the trail of the gasoline leads to your feet
you burn to break the silence
the ice has melted
the winter is passing
conscious but barely breathing
fuse lit by a heavy hand
shaking nervously, dodging bullets
only if an outcome was certrain
seconds flying by our ears
another calendar in ashes
going numb from rum rivers
hazy from the heroin
catatonic from the miles of cocain
killed softly by ketamine
daydreaming of dilauded
new found avenues, soaking up too much acid
i swear i will miss you
your pill i choose to swallow
i dont break a sweat, glowing as i'm going grey
trying to live as I am dying
far away you sleep
some one knows who you are next to
im going numb
circles of smoke turning blue and then black
i fade into what was once sanctuary
but it has gotten dangerous
it used to be safe
now your ghost walks around
behind every door, around every corner
there is no where to run
not a single place to hide
haunted and unsure of reality
