I pour myself the rest of the bottle Tap my fingers on the icy counter Sing with the rain outside my door Like taking the pills I find on my floor My heart pounds like a vengeful hammer While words in my throat I continue to stammer Black rain beats down atop of my head Jagged glass cutting the heartstrings thread Poisonous liquid running down my lips As I grow weak and unsteady in my hips Shaking and throbbing while holding my throat The air merely around you causing me to choke Pieces of my heart falling from my chest Thieves in the night snatching my best No breath left in this body of mine My world spins as I run out of time Stumbling the tight rope of care and apathy Ignorance or knowledge of what is happening Although hope deteriorates, I remain a believer Suffering through this straitjacket fever.
