Overdose

Memories of neglect and abuse
Haunted since a miserable youth
Dejected sadness decorates every move
Corruption has ultimately led to

Alcohol abuse, overdose
Substance misuse, overdose

Socially alone, please lift this curse
Helpless, can things get much worse?

Alcohol abuse, overdose
Substance misuse, overdose

Excessive measures
To terminate
Solution unseen
Must end this misery

Ninety seven paraceamol
Says take two, you went and ate them all
Slit both wrists to make sure
If you slashed your throat you'd have bled a lot more

So cold, body staring at the sky
The blood reveals how but not why

Alcohol abuse, overdose
Substance misuse, overdose
