I took a drag
To try and see
A little bit
Of ecstasy
"It'll be fun"
Or so they said
For on that night
They found me dead
High as a kite
I danced like mad
Kissing strangers
To not feel sad
A consequence
Came to me quite quick
I leaned over the toilet
Feeling sick
Coughing up memories
And lost loves and thoughts
Burning holes in my brain
Eyes plagued with blots
I'm glued to the floor
As blurs urge me to breathe
Some rush in to save me
But I'm dead as I leave
With my last thought to wander
I must tell, before I die
You're not the only one hurting
When you decide to get high
