Crying For More
Though not a baby
he needs this pacifier
His veins are crying out to him
For a shot of heroine
They must be fed
The fix is in
He has sown the seeds of addiction
and now it's time to reap
Having been fed, he sleeps
but he has fallen in too deep
He will not awaken from this ...
nightmare... needles dripping....
tears..
the needles lay scattered on the floor
but his veins will cry no more
