WHEN THE SMOKES SETTLES AND THE DRAGONS ARE SLAIN, I’VE FINALLY GOT A CLEAR HEAD ALL I WANT TO DO IS SOCIALIZE AGAIN. I NEED TO STOP FEELING BAD ABOUT SHIT I CAN’T CHANGE. FUCK THE GUILT AND FINALLY PUT DOWN THE BOWL.
ILL BURN THE HERB THAT MAKES ME GO NUMB, IT LIES TO ME TELLS ME THAT I’M HAVING FUN. DROWN MYSELF IN A SEA OF SMOKE MORE MURDER, MURDER, MURDER I’LL HAVE ANOTHER TOKE.
I CAN’T HELP THAT THE FOOTSTEPS MAKE ME PARANOID, THESE NERVOUS HABITS ARE WHAT I CAME TO AVOID. I’M CONVINCED THIS HAS NO EFFECT ANYMORE, I’M MORE THAN LIKELY SMOKING AWAY MY SOUL.
IS THIS WHY I CAN’T FEEL ANYTHING?
