High

The lighter flicks, my lungs fill with smoke

There's a slight burning in my throat.

My thoughts are a little hazy, 

And everything I say sounds a bit crazy.

I finally found my remedy 

The thing that let's my heart break free.

My laughs are whole hearted

The darkness has parted

I no longer feel alone.

But what goes up must come down

And soon I'm crash landing on the ground.

The good feeling disappears

And once again I'm fighting back tears.

So I light another and fade away

Saving the numbness for another day.
