- …

- Hit the bottle till his vitals went to zero, head out
- [Bleedin' from the eyes, pushin' past a point four oh](BAC of 0.40%. brain ccompletly loses the ability to control basic life and support functions; The extreme pressure from gagging and vomiting at a fatal level can reputre ocular blood vessels completely, making it look like the eyes are bleed)

- Static in my ears, flashin' the lights on my house wall
- A million fuckin' thoughts racin' but I couldn't even track 'em
- My sensors overload, the details, I couldn't map 'em
- In my own fog, none of this shit was hittin' me
- [Woke up the next day, finally felt the gravity blitz me (welcome to adulthood kid)](Delayed trauma response, or truma induced dissocitation, during a criss, the brain protects itself by freezing or emotionally numbing the person, This happens cause the nervous system was completely short circuited the night before by sensory overload, the true emotional weight and realization of the trauma don't actually hit until the body calms down and wakes up the following day)

- They said I need to get some sleep, well I have a special treat, very sweet
- One girl bites Avery, her mouth dirty
- She isn’t worthy being my friend, not worth the journey

- Now I strongly believe what my mom and dad taught me.
