Tony draws a line, perfectly
Sculpted in its thickness. The
White powder beckons me to
Take it inside of me and I
Don't refuse. I am
Invincible.
It used to
Hurt, but now the pain has
Sent me numb. Soon
Enough the buzz flutters through
My system and I'm floating
High above the world. I am
Invincible.
Nothing can bring me
Down from my throne.
Trouble is my
Destiny, an opportunity I
Won't pass up. Anything to get the
Next line. I'm up for it. I am
Invincible.
Stealing money, forging
Checks, manipulating everyone
I know. Anything to get another
Hit. I don't care what happens to
My family. They abandoned me,
There's no point in protecting
Them. Tony and the line,
They're all I need, want. I am
Invincible.
Guns to my head, sexual
Favors, the crash and burn.
Baby, draw me another line.
I just want another hit. Give
Me the buzz, back up and
Give me the space to breath.
I need to breathe. Just another
One more line. I am
Invincible.
Anything for another hit,
Just one more line. Nothing
Is at risk. All I see is the line,
Crushed by a razor and
Drawn out tight. Another
High, another day. Robbing
A convenience store, breaking into my
Mother's bank account, forging more
Checks. A day in the life of an addict.
I am forever
Invincible.
A/N: Drug addiction. I know its a touchy subject for a lot of people, but I felt that I had to write it. I haven't gone through it, but I have friends and family that have. Addiction is a scary thing and no one is invincible.
