Pop a few to ease the hurt
wrestling with my mind, hoping this time it works.
When the pain gets this bad I need to medicate
the depression sets in, there is no debate.
Not wanting to start on this roller-coaster to addiction
I pray to God- help me keep my convictions.
Grin and bear it as long as I can
but of the suffering, I am NO fan.
Weighed the choice carefully on both sides of the scale
because I chose to take it does not mean I've failed.
This little white pill can damage as it heals
it can be hard to be mindful of the power it wields.
It's a double-edged sword once it enters the bloodstream
I hope not to get cut as I wait for the dreams.
