Uncontrollable
Picking up the bottle
The stinging taste
Burning you're throat
You feel the heavy liquid
Rolling over your tongue
You roll the joint next to you
You light it up and take a puff
Coughing uncontrollably from the toxins
Your friends keep telling you to stop
You don't listen to their words
You listen to the voice in your head
Telling you to keep drinking
To keep smoking that awful drug
You've become so addicted
And you can't stop
Not now, not ever.
