Drug: Adrenaline
Jumping from rooftop to rooftop
always looking down, never looking up.
They always say that it's better to never look at what you could fall through
I just stare. Let my mind reel and my heart burst.
Climbing up a wall without a holster,
slipping and giggling,
laughing like a menace.
Breaking and crumbling below the pressure
Running across a heavily busy street,
Jumping from a swing to high up
Reading the fight scenes until I think my heart will attack
Slowly dying from the inside out
A different drug that is still bad
Something I can get from going against the rules
Running to fast on slippery ice
Loving every moment
hand on hand combat,
never thinking, always moving
Letting the familiar feeling flood through my veins
hotter than blood, thicker than water
I'm sure someday my heart will burst
Will stop freaking out at everything I do
But it's not today
So I keep going.
Attacking every menacing thing that lies before me
Stealing the drug I love so much
So that one day my prescription bottle will lie
I'll go to rehab but I think I'll still get the high
fly down stairs, trying other medicine
going against every rule.
The doctor writes down my antidote.
A small glass room to do nothing in.
Not big enough to run
Not big enough to fly
But still I get my high
Talking myself into it
Such a risky trip
Still I go for more because it's what I love
It doesn't kill my lungs
Doesn't ruin my legs
Just sloshes my heart
Races my mind
My drug.
My antidote.
My adrenaline high.
