Slipping..falling..going...gone.

by Tripp   Nov 29, 2007


What's the point to bother
to keep going on
if I'm bound to falter
I'm slipping...falling...
going...gone

It's been three days and still no sleep
it's been three days and I have yet to leap
I'm standing on the edge of the precipice
I'm overlooking the inky-black abyss

With nothing here to help me
just me myself and I
no one's here to help me
when I'm just about to die

Simulated emotions and artificial visions
personality fractures and mental collisions
Waging a war on the battlefield of my brain
Insanity looming over conquering the sane

Weed and dope, coke and amphetamines
liquor and pills, I'm smoking that nicotine
It's a feeling so nice, a feeling so sublime
a feeling so great, I'm feeling so fine

Feeling fine, feeling good, feeling great
I'm walking, looking, turning back too late
I'm a prisoner to the rush, slave to the high
self-convicted inmate with the verdict to die

    Tripp... where ever you get these words, these stanzas [e.g.

    Simulated emotions and artificial visions
    personality fractures and mental collisions
    Waging a war on the battlefield of my brain
    Insanity looming over conquering the sane ]
