Beneath the city's poisoned glow,
I drain the glass, it drowns my chest,
A fag smoulders in my crooked grin,
As smoke coils tight, a lover's jest.
I down the amber, thick as blood,It scalds like sin, yet oh, so sweet,
The world turns hazy, spinning fast,
Beneath the pounding of my feet.
Pills like jewels on trembling tongues,
I chase the stars,
I chase the moon,
The night unfolds, a velvet cloak,
And death hums softly in the tune.
Each line I snort, a vicious kiss,
The air grows sharp, my pulse a race—I feel the edge, the cliffside close,
Where pleasure grins with death's embrace.
The thrill, it bites, a savage high,
I laugh into the void, uncaring,
But in the back of every sip,
There lurks a voice—so cold, so daring.
"Go on," it whispers, "take it all,
You’re dancing now with borrowed time,
One step, one slip, and off you go,
To where the bells of midnight chime."
I ride the chaos, feel the pull,
The ecstasy, the fatal kiss,
I teeter at the bleeding edge,
And wonder, is there more than this?
