Tokyo Ice (poem)

ice ice baby, here in Tokyo...
all awake and wired until crash.
wandering into the morning,
afraid of people,
but finding a network of friends.
afraid of love,
all alone in the middle of a crowd.
then i see you,
and we share the ice and chill.
all awake and wired until crash.
afraid of thinking
and of the bad people in the crowd
afraid of trusting
anyone who's mean to me.
that's what Tokyo ice does to you.

frozen in time,
ice ice baby, here in Tokyo...
awake and wired until crash.
wandering into the morning,
afraid of people,
but finding a network of friends.
acting like a five year old
when things don't go my way.
all awake and wired until crash.
wondering why that guy is following me...
all awake and wired until crash.
i wouldn't wish this on anyone else.

ice ice baby, here in Tokyo...
awake and wired until crash.
my heart is pounding.
afraid of people,
am I going to die?
afraid of people,
maybe it's time to give up the fast life.
all awake and wired until crash.

no more, waiting quietly
in the hospital, did all the stupid things
the doctor said to do,
I even apologized to my parents,
but none of my friends came by.
it's time to wait for my meds,
and forget about that old life.
i wouldn't wish this on anyone else.
who needs ice when i've discovered
how much my family loves me?
for i've found how warm
people can be when they care.
