Pills

Woosh, there goes my life
I need to have a gripe
Minute by minute, hour by hour
Absorbing all your fire power
Shouting at me, hear and there
Ceramic crashing everywhere
God, you need some pills
To introduce you to some chills
To make you realise, I am only a man
And I don’t mean the bogeyman
Til death do us part, what a joke
My whole entire life has just gone up in smoke
Look out, you scream	
Flashing light, sounds, am I in a day dream
looking up at the ceiling
I can’t quite make out what I’m feeling
Then, I realised it was you
That had clobbered me with a horseshoe
That once lived above the living room door
But is now lying by the side of me on the floor
God, if you can hear me at the bottom of this black hill
Please, please, I beg you!! Allow me just a few of my pills.
