Drip - Nonfiction

We’ve got an IV drip

We’ve been wearing it since we were kids

I’ve been building up my tolerance

And I’m stocked for the apocalypse

We spend our lives chasing stimulants

We all still gotta find a way to absolve our sins

So we sing songs of metamorphosis

We’re crawling back into the chrysalis

There’s a place for everyone

Even you

A kind of grave for you to go to

It’s not a space in the yard

It’s a life that gets harder

Even if you follow the rules

Promise, they’re coming for you

Now I’m alone again

The lines on my skin are my only friends

I remember when I meant something

Before the chemicals changed everything

Is there a pill for this?

I found god inside a bag of some bullshit bliss

And she rocks me back to sleep again

It never ends
