brand-new version of me

Adrift on an emotional wreck,
Busy to lick the wounds you salted
I even forgot to strike back
Or start the engine you halted.

Racing downwards the hill
With no magic elixir in my veins
Contemplating the huge hole to fill,
So numb that I forgot the pain.

Kicked me when I was on the floor,
Gave me an overdose of antidote…
Now your drug won't work anymore.
I'm hooked on an one-way road

To what I wouldn't want to be,
Built in a series of new features
A brand-new version of me -
A pretense of a feeling creature.
