my hands storm & shake violently
but the drugs make them steady
my eyes are foggy with defeat
but the drugs make them clear
my teeth grind against one another
but the drugs loosen my jaw
my skin itches and pains with uncertainty
but the drugs make me numb
my heart claws its way out of my chest
but the drugs put it back in
my mind races and rocks, unyielding
but the drugs turn on slow motion
my memories haunt every waking moment
but the drugs let me forget
but the drugs let me forget
