Smoke Gets High

stone keeps rolling,

                                 smoke gets higher,

                     passing through his system.

                                   running mind wild and free.  

                                              changing one into zombie.

                                                 pulse beats faster.

                                  ants become monster.

                                      weak gets stronger.

                            world turns smaller.

                                           once you'd hook, 

                                                no ending.

                                               things are worsen,

                                    when smoke gets high.
