The worlds collide
Like dynamite
Ignite your skin
They set off something deep within
You start to shake
As you feel the familiar ache
Coursing through your veins
You hold thinly-veiled disdain
As a virtue of the vice
Don't ask for a price
It's free, free as anything can be
This hit is your disguised enemy
It says it loves you
Caresses you with care
Then it leaves you be
In f*cking despair
Of those two worlds you must choose
The one in which you may lose
Failure is inevitable
Yet success is unforgettable
This one world has its own light show
It twinkles with a special moonlit glow
Colors dance before your eyes
Black, white, black, white
You know that in here you can find a respite
But to what affect?
Who else will you push away?
Who else will you let go?
Don't you think that the thoughts you know
Will become nothing but a faint afterglow?
This other world has darkness
Yet ensconced in it is light
You just need to dig deep enough
To learn to choose the right
There are shakes and shivers
As you turn your back on this abusive friend
You'll find yourself wishing
That it would all just end
But then you experience that moment
That happiness is yours
And you find that your friend doesn't have to know
You can slip quietly away
And you can be strong
You've been capable of doing this
All along
So drop the white powder
Put out that corrosive smoke
You must choose a world to live in
You must choose the world of hope
