Erased

Just like a rubber will you erase me?
when i cut mysef do i bleed?
if i smoke will it kill my lungs 
or even if i smoke weed
when i look into a mirror
what do i see
just an empty face
no longing
never ending space
im filling a void 
the alchohol fils my head
i can no longer see
inside im empty yet i feel dizzy
i close my eyes all is said
the back hole i dig is when im six feet dead.
