Saving Grace

My arm shakes and my insides knot
I clench my teeth
My knees weaken
I try to think straight
I’m so tired…So asleep
On my feet

What was swishing through my blood?
What was keeping me alive?
(Awake)
I need it, need it
More than you

I am drained
I’m so tired….so asleep
On my feet

The small compartment’s empty
Little tiny circles of shiny saving grace
Blue and white
Small and brown
Smooth pale green
Give them back to me before I scream

Before I faint
Before I slip away

I’m so sad
I’m so tired…so asleep
On my feet

So dead to the world
So sick of you and me.
