Too many Vodkas the night before,
Wake up in another bed feeling like a whore.
Make up smudged around your eyes,
Your smile tells a thousand lies.
You feel like your in a hamster wheel.
Your life, it just doesn't feel real.
You chase a moment to feel alive again,
You seek it through a couple of drinks or ten.
Sometimes harder stuff ensues,
But it's only happiness that you pursue.
Stuck in a system a routine of shit,
Just a glass will help,
Or just one hit.
A fucked up Britain gets you down,
The system brings a constant frown
An endless cycle leaves no feeling of self worth.
What happened in between today and birth?
No job, no love no cash
Makes you feel like utter gash.
You just wanna live a decent life,
Got sick of this worry troubles and strife.
But no one cares you're just a number here,
So carry on wasting precious life dear.
This world is fucked so what's the point?
You sit and ponder with another joint.

White Lines Of Freedom

White lines for sadness and sorrow. Blue pills for never ending joy. No one ever gives a shit. If you're a man or boy. Always the money. It's all for the wealth. You can sniff it or shoot it.

My Friend

Why is it so cold out tonight. The winds tearing at my whispery grey beard, again. I shift body weight to keep my chin away from the bitterness of night.

The World Unknown

When life gives you lemons, throw them straight back. Your head it does pound; you're under attack. And the world slips away from your reach, this day, You can't get it back; it just wanders away.
