i want to give up, turn off
for a minute at least

i don't care about how many hours my mind is going to kill me

because this is an addiction
and i keep using

for hours and hours
doses and more doses

until i lose consciousness
and repeat when i wake up

it's too good a cycle
certainly lethal
but that was always the point

so we're going on a tightrope
between striving for a few more steps,
knowing you won't cross,
or falling now and drowning

- how long will you fight?
