a poem I wrote in 2017 that ended up becoming a song my band performed.
Self-Medication

Give me a reason,
How did it begin?
What made you do it?
What caused you to commit the ultimate sin?

I need the answers,
So I can understand,
I need a quick fix,
I'm so tired of living with blood on my hands.

Ive got a wicked sensation,
Pure mutilation,
No explanation for drowning myself in my Self-Medication


I truly hope you know,
Just what you put me through,
And that you realize,
These scars I've created are because of you.

I sit back and ponder,
Maybe I'll never know,
I may get over it,
But my hate for you will continue to grow.


But there's a wicked sensation.
For pure mutilation,
Still no explanation for drowning myself in my Self-Medication.


So watch as the blood trickles down from my newest creation,
Self Medication.

Still the blood trickles down from my newest creation,
Self Medication.

Find me an explanation...
