drugs...

we make drugs out of people

they will course through your veins

make your heart race uncontrollably

and elicit feelings of euphoria

you need more

and more

and more

we make drugs out of people

and become addicted

so much so, that without them you pace

nervously touch your face

let horrifying thoughts creep into your brain

don't make drugs out of people

because when they leave

you cant crumple bills in your trembling hand

and casually purchase that same happiness

from a stranger on a bench

or an alley

or a corner

$10, $20, $30, i'll pay ya back?

don't make drugs out of people

because when they leave, they're gone for good

you can;t name your price

only wish that you could

they're just gone for good.
