Psychoactive Drug

12/1998

although the year has been tough
give it another day
maybe you'll make it through
maybe you'll die today

i hope you're strong enough to live
you should be weak enough to cry
now is your time to give
to the ones that try

she scarred herself with weakness
using a sharp fin off a cod
all of them said god bless
she doesn't believe in only one god

there's been no success with death
tonight they will pray for her
as she takes her thinking final breath
and all of them said for sure

carry her out to the field
her body in a casket
with this she has no shield
she feels as if she's in a basket

her family and friends full of sadness
turns to the darkness
of a psychoactive drug
