Back to Earth
Back to Earth
Smoking kills you, I have heard…
Not fast enough to scare you, mind you,
But as it does its insidious task…
It feeds your brain
the wonderful idea of contentment…
Of denial
Of letting go of the pain this world brings
each day
To your doorstep
And so I’m jumping out of this airplane and…
On purpose…
I forgot to check my parachute
And I’ve heard…
That the fall is the thrill of a lifetime
They say, its all downhill from here
But I’m still left asking
As I plummet back to earth
How long, Lord?
How long before
I shall be released.
