Laced

Dude
What was I smoking last night
I walked for miles and miles and woke up in a wall
Everything was blue
The faces followed me as I kept on
I don't remember my name
I only remember my footsteps as I wandered

I found a bird
It called out to me
Saying "How could you leave me?"
But it was just a passing voice
I barely noticed
The wind was too loud in my ears
All of the rushing and whistling
Too distracted to care

The water was white
It was pure
Fresh
Cold
Clean
But it wasn't you
And thus I continue

The trees were flipped
They stood on edge
Everything felt wrong
But I felt all right
And I walked on

The morning came
The sky stayed black
A storm is brewing
But I felt okay
And so I stumbled on

I tripped.
I fell.
It was you, wasn't it?
I couldn't tell.
Too high to notice
The end had come
And left me here
To suffer all alone.

Whatever I took
It was laced
With words of poison
An end without grace
This is the end
And you knew it, too.

You gave me something
To dull the pain
And I took it all
It fanned the flames
So here I sit
In my personal hell
All alone.
