Run Or Hide
Where do you run
When you're scared of yourself?
To the liquid in the pipe
Or the pills on the shelf?
To escape the life
You once loved to live
Anything to have that life back
You would surely give
suffocating in a big white cloud
And dope that makes you forget
But this you cannot escape
And this life comes with a debt
A debt not of money or goods
Not a dime or a dollar sign
But the love and devotion
Now, it’s gone and you cannot find
Your baby’s love
Your trust for the system
It just blew into the wind
With one big gust
Now drowning a in a puddle
And sniffing a thin white line
Was it really worth breaking
All our hearts including mine?
But I find myself
In an awkward place
I both pity and despise you
This is not often the case
I ask you now
Why would you, how could you?
that baby taken away
That person I loved thought I knew
And then I think
How pitiful you are
And how bad to you
This will soon scar
So I offer my help
And my hand I freely give
So make your choice
Do you die, or do you live?
