"It hurt when I found out she dug her lies more than my truth" - Henry Rollins

It hurt when I found out she dug her lies more than my truth
It hurt when she finally broke down and saw the real thing
She was so let down
She felt like she had been ripped off
My truth incinerated her lies
I asked her if she loved me
She said that I wasn't the person she thought she knew
I told her I was right here
I was a lie to her lie
I let her down
I couldn't feel bad for being myself
It hurts to think that when we were looking into each other's eyes
We were looking at strangers we thought we knew so well

"She's kind of druggie." - Henry Rollins

She's kind of druggie. On again off again. The times when she's on,
she's on. She's bumming on having to come down. When she's off,
she's talking about getting on. She's not an addict, it's an on again,
off again kind of thing. You know, like those “heroin weekends”
people go for, meth runs, etc. You know what I'm talking about. She
pulls an apple cart, the driver has a stick with an apple on a string,
he dangles it in front of her nose. She sees a syringe, the needle
shines. She likes the word “spike.” The needle is a lover, she likes
the words “doing a dime.” The needle is boss, the needle is her best
friend. If she says, “Tie me off, lover” one more time I'll scream.

"Living on hope is like being locked in a prison cell and the sun is shining so brightly through the window that your eyes become blind to the bars." - Henry Rollins

Living on hope is like being locked in a prison cell and the sun is
shining so brightly through the window that your eyes become blind
to the bars. As soon as you're blind and drunk on hope, they gotcha.
