Heartbreak Medicine

I gotta stay high all the time to keep you off my mind...

The numbing of these substances keeps me from feeling...

My negative coping skills.

I drink to forget. 

Drowning every memory my body has of your touch and the feel of you.

I inhale to let go. 

Attempting to elevate myself beyond the grasp your presence has on my senses.

It lets me leave everything behind.

In the light of the day you rule my mind, 

But for those few midnight hours I am free.

Free of the things I can't shake when I am sober.

As if this brings me to another life.

It shuts my eyes and blocks my emotion from the longing for pleasures once enjoyed.
