Drift Away

Walking through crowded streets
lost in a sea of strangers.
Tired and wired on over-the-counter drugs,
realizing your life is a danger.

Coming home, empty rooms and empty chairs.
A lonely blanket of haze fills your head.
Can’t eat and can’t sleep,
can’t even get out of bed.

Broken heart and lonely
too desperate for any words.
Cold winds are a-blowing
slowly let yourself drift away.
