Earphones
Music was prescribed as my medicine.
To calm down the adreline, that came on rushing in.
Playing the song again, and again, and again.
Looping and looping like a old broken record until the end.
A song was sung, making me try to release the emotion.
Like catching a high, sitting still no motion.
Going in one ear and out the other, like taking a real long smoke.
Not of dope, but of harmony
Slowly breath in and out the melody
Which is tellin' me
Forget about the pain, numbing the heart
For a temporary night.
