Recovery
My pieces are raining down
You really shattered me
My mirror is broken
I’m all empty
I allowed this monster to stay
To hold me down again
Get inside and ride me
Thought that we were friends
My eyes got wide and saw
The pain that I had caused
I ripped my vocal cords in half
Expecting some applause
I changed my act and kept clean
Even sang a different tune
But I came crashing down again
Failure came too soon
Shallow to my bones
Royal growing pains
I think I’ve had enough
Slowly losing strains
Too many downers uppers
Bottoms of bottles in the air
Of prescripts or liquors endlessly
I really didn’t care
I’m a mess I need to clean it up
It’s killin me it’s what everybody sees
It’s me this time who’s had enough
I just wish it was with ease
I want to save myself this time
I just can’t do it without help
But the only person I have come to blame
Is really just myself
