Pick Your Poison

Toxic, is a friend of my mine
Running through my veins till the morning light
Anger, normally stays inside
But comes to wreak havoc every once in a while
Conscience, done run away from me
Half way through that bottle of Jimmy Beam
Blurry, is what I’m seein’ now
I’m all tore up just level with the ground
It’s the enemy, but I miss it like a best friend
Shot in the dark time and time again
What will it be? Lord, Pick your poison

Sickness, come to visit now
Lickin’ my wounds I put on myself
Memory, is failin me
Ready for another round of misery
Regret, is an early bird
Apologizin’ for everything I said and done
Habit, has got its claws in me
And I’m scrapin’ for a little peace and sanity
It’s the enemy, but I miss it like a best friend
Shot in the dark time and time again
What will it be? Lord, Pick your poison
