Understanding the junkie by Aaron HowardThe tingling starts at my tongue.. then the reflex of the cough shocks me back as my lungs try to expel the smoke.. my throat burns from the pronounced rejection.. I feel my scalp tingle at the base of my neck as the world sparkles with lights and dancing strobes.. the waves overtake me as I fade from sight.. I see the galaxy swirling in my living room as my mind reels with rejection and recognition of the induced state its now having to regulate.. Sparkling slowly as the world swirls in my minds eye.. passing time in a daze swirling tweet tweet, sweeter than sweet sugarcane on sale. Dreamy walk through the drugstore of euphoria and its all up to yah.. You pick the post, stick to it.. and pay for what you get.. raised in a perfect life.. until corruption and addiction settled a score on your soul.. as you slowly lost self control.. digging a whole to help fill the ones in your soul
Now youre left with a buzz and regrets and no matter how high you get, youll never forget.. Just sit there and burn away the time
for you know the next line
Dont burn the day.. dont waste that time away
Ill spent time is on excess today
and we got souls to pay
So work hard, at your dreams.. for its easier than it seems
And were all on our teams, but it all starts anew on mornings beams..
So wrap a dream up and smoke it for the past..
And hope that maybe these dreams will last..
Deseed the cast-a ways of your former friends
And recognize everything has to come to ends..
Be it your life, youre love, your dream of dreams..
Itll all fall apart at the seams
But fret not brother or sister
Since the world will give you a titty twister
Hold you down and kick you in the jewels
Since its only pain that rules..
So avoid it if you can..
Maybe one day youll understand.
