Double Arrows Down

I’m sitting here
Tired of living life that’s filled with fear
It’s not fair
I’m just sick of being scared
Sometimes life deals you a shitty hand
Sometimes your day doesn’t go as planned
But with me
I feel like all I do is bleed
There’s days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Just lay there until all I read is low
I’m sick as shit of all these pricks
And everybody’s ignorance
This needle’s wearing thin
And there’s no end
I’m sitting there
In another cold pharmacy chair
Standing by
While they suck my veins and wallet dry
I can write all these defiant songs
But my life is still reliant on machines
And all I do is bleed
There’s days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Just lay there until all I read is low
I’m sick as shit of all these pricks
And everybody’s ignorance
This needle’s wearing thin
And there’s no end
Last thing I remember
Before you plunged the needle
I lied there shaking on this cold gas station floor
Eyes are rolling back
Into my skull it fades to black
There’s days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Just lay there until all I read is low
The highs and lows and insulin
I’m so tired of explaining it
This needles wearing thin and there’s no end
