I'm falling once more

I ride my high like waves

I play the game with no saves

Up down

Riding the chemicals like a carnival ride

Going down on a hazardous slide

On gentle wings I fly

Through thunderous skies

I have ivory white lies

I'm digging deep within my soul

And leaves a sorrow filled hole

I'm crawling on the floor

Searching for the bathroom door

The only sounds I hear are lighter strikes

All my nerves stand on edge like spikes

I'm living life through impulse

Waiting for my heart to stop the pulse

I am awakening

Through my facade breaking

I'm falling once more

Bloody battered and sore
