CracKcoCainE

by c h an e l - Virgo

introduced me to the stripper life
found some friends and got paid
as i was changing into my costume
saw my friend sniffing crack cocaine

i stopped in my tracks and glared
a long moment of akward silence drew
i gasped in disbelief and disgust
but she held my hand and led me through

just plug your nose to one side
and snort hard and fast in straight lines
your nose might bleed a little while
but the effect will start to form in time

she let me hit about 3 lines
and told me she could get my own
i just paid 50 after some tips
never knew it would get out of control

when i felt the high coming on
my world turned into bright colors
i couldnt see my life slipping away
cared more about coke than others

when i was high i danced better
i got tipped furiously at night
i was a diffrent person those times
a mask of crack as my disguise

i was a junkie/ stripper joke
i loved him more than anything
he carressed my lungs when i smoked it
he showed his power in my nose bleeds

started coming in larger amounts
more bang for the buck i suppose
never knew i could do too much
never knew any1 who died of an overdose

i snorted the whole bag in one night
didnt even save any for tomorrow
the high was such a great impact
my head pounded from each ear lobe

when the blood spread onto my finger tips
and i knew this wasnt an ordinary nose bleed
i quickly fled to the bathroom mirror
my face a withered nothing was what i could see

the moment when you can say goodbye
that last breath that youre able to inhale
the minute before you realize your life
has been marked with a big red "fail"

my hand slipping in slow motion
as my body dropped to the floor
my very last blink came with terror
my body still craving even more

crack cocaine was my killer
two faced in every way or another
i saw only the better part of it
my life no diffrent from the next junkie other
