Xanax

Take me with water,

Or even a beer,

Swallow me dry,

I'll wipe away your fear.

I'll keep you warm,

I'll make you forget,

The days of the month, & even when we met.

I come in blue,

And start with an X,

I'll numb you so good,

You won't know what's next.

I'll help you sleep,

For more than a day,

Take two of me,

& I'll show you the way.

Be careful when driving,

Cause you might crash,

And you won't remember,

You'll just feel like trash.

I forgot to tell you,

I'm pretty strong.

I can control you,

All night long.

I'll stay in your body,

& make you want more,

I'll curve your hunger,

Til you hit the floor.

Let this be a lesson,

I'm not like the rest,

Take more than two,

And that'll be your test.

So tell me,

Do you like me?

Would you try me once more?

I promise I'll keep this between us,

Just swallow four more.
