Speed

Feeling the blood pulsing
Through my racing veins
My limbs are blurred and shaking
This is just like a game

One or two pills too many
Will send the jitters fast
In the morning my head'll be pulsing
Ears ringing like a fine wine glass

But the energy is addicting
Just like the feeling of high
But one or two pills too many
And I'll be saying goodbye

Impulses come so naturally
Stupid ideas as well
An hour after that first pill
Our plan had seemed so swell

But now we're rolling in agony
From headaches like hangovers true
Never again will I mix drugs
Is the promise I had made to you

But later when homework is piling
And due dates are looming near
I pop a pill or a couple
And feel energy rushing near

I know that I'll pay in the morning
When I wake up to a pounding brain
But right now I'm feeling quite happy
I'm riding the speed fueled train
