Hopeful

Nicotine stained fingertips on me.

You only see, what they want you to see.

I can't sleep, but I really want to sleep.

dreams don't come, so naturally.

I'll take my pill, maybe I'll take two.

You have to take them, they're always watching you.

poison me with happiness, try to make me smile.

end this infinite sadness, that keeps me docile.

After awhile, life's not bad

and suddenly you realize, you're not that sad

Fuck what they say, fuck what they do

It doesn't matter, its only up to you.
