its the drug i'm needing

the blackest black, she thinks thats where she is.
sinking into a hole on the dirtiest sidewalk in america.
she belongs with the cigarette butts and broken beer bottles.
scratching out her fears with her fingernails,
she wants more.
her mind is clouded with unattainable things.
holding on to dreams she can't ignore.
out of the corner of her eye, she looks for you.
anyone to give her a hand.
for some reason, you take her at face value.
and she belongs with the cigarette butts and broken beer bottles.
