I was always the girl that everyone came to
The one who everyone like to talk shit about
So one night I wanted to be cool
I got a pill to take
They said" It makes you have a high"
So I said why not
I took it
And I loved the way it made me feel
So I started to pop them one right after another
There wasnt a day that went by that I wasnt high on pills
It made the day seem shorter
And the nights even shorter
I got with this guy who
Made drugs look so cool
I started to do more then just pain killers
I was doing alot of pills
It seemed my life went to shit
I want to hang with new people
But they took one look and turned their heads
I heard the names they called me
I was now clasifed as a pillpopper
Thats when everything changed
It was hard when everyone is shoving the drugs in your face
But I had to stop, I just had to make a new life for myself
I was only 16 and didnt want to die.
So I moved away met new friends
And now no more pills
I feel so much better

Pep pills, barbituates, heroin, crack cocaine, LSD, what do you think they're made for, why do you think they call them DOPE!!
glad to see you are on the right path back to sobriety...it is easy to take pills and escape, it is much harder to take life without artificial enhancements...best to you...Artis -
