We force this poison into our bodies
then our bodies force the poison back out
so is it a natural routine
when I know I should be going without?

The social norm is the social decay
and sometime soon it will kill all your friends,
and society would push it away
should they know how their deadly habit ends.

And yet I still find myself joining in,
shaking the hand that grabs my throat and throttles
and I'm really thinking of giving in
picking up my favoured poison bottles.

If we all took our time to stop and think
how many of us would reject our drink?
