Lucifer's Medicine



>Lucifers Medicine<

*Darkness begins ro creep among the black painted sky!

*The moon light glow off the water near by

*An unknown voice appears so deep & ghostly!

*The devil, lucifer approaches me closely!

*He says " I have something that will numb it all!"

*Medicine that will help you forget, numb the feelings, the more you do the more youll fall!

*Years have passed by & i still cant say "no!"

*Hooked on medicine; Without it makes your head wanna blow!

*It didnt occur that this could happen ro someone like me, So much stronger then i thought it could ever be times 100 you see!

*Knowing the risks and what it does to someone unstable way of living!

*It keeps you wanting more, when its gone leaves your nose all sniviling!

*"HAHA!" He laughs "Now your soul belongs to me, by accepting the hand out, youll be banished to my hell!

*How the f*ck can i break this spell; Ive become nothing but a empty shell!

Trapt with this evil curse & to be sent to the firery depths of the underworld below!

*Cleaniess is next to godliness so ive been told, with my choice to bestow!
