Bespoken for
Haloed and haunted
Anytime anyone demanded more
You were not unfounded
In asking too many questions
You asked the correct ones
Cuz everyone glanced in your general direction
With frowns on
You were the last thing
I remember seeing
before the dust and smoke filled the air
There was so much happening
My senses were overwhelmed
And now that I come to you
To relieve the tension
Overindulging, addicted
I feel like I'm floating but at the same time, sinking
Imperceptibly, almost
And then I'm rock bottom
Hold on to mercy
It may be all we have left
It may be all we have left, now...
