Drugged

these are the words i hate to use
for these words have no real use
Denial
all that follows is empty sorrow
Tomorrow, yesterday, tomorrow
today
everyday
as easy as it is to simply refuse
i can not turn down my only muse
On trial
on my fingers the same drugs linger
tomorrow, yesterday, tomorrow
today
everyday

could it be i live for what will surely be my death
all of humankind is so hungry, blind, and deaf
with no reason for my being i make one up
but that alone is never enough
how can i be freed from greed

I need

these are the words i'll never use
for i know these words serve no use
Denial
getting harder and farther
tomorrow, yesterday, tomorrow
today
everyday

could it be i live for what will surely be my death
all of humankind is so hungry, blind, and deaf
with no reason for my being i make one up
but that alone is never enough
how can i be freed from greed

I need

this alone numbs my pain
this alone keeps me sane
no more to lose
no more to gain
with this i dig myself an early grave
I need
to be free
but i'll never be saved
