100cc

An insulin syringe seems so small Tiny actually And all the things they can hold Is almost too much to fathom These little tubes Can hold your car and your house And as crazy as this sounds Even your spouse 100cc's full of your hopes and your dreams If this sounds too extreme Just take it from me These things can hold Your family and your friends And theres still plenty of room For each of your kids They'll hold your future Even your past And they've never failed To fill up fast So with this warning What will you do Risk it or not It's all up to you In the blink of an eye Your worlds turned into a transparent liquid It's all that's left What will you do with it

Yes, sad but true what some will give up for a syringe full of liquid deception. The White Lady lies. She always does
