I sat on my bed, twitching,
Looking left, looking right,
Bouncing my legs up and down,
One little sip, please.

I couldn’t keep my eyes in one place.
My heart keeps pounding, I keep twitching,
Looking left, looking right,
One little sip, please.

My palms were sweating,
It was like I ran a race.
I was tired, I was jumpy,
One little sip, please.

I needed it, so badly,
One small cup, one little drink,
One gulp of that drink.
One little sip, please.

It was pure amber in a cup.
The forbidden drink.
I needed it so badly.
One little sip, please.

I wanted that drink. I needed it.
One taste of euphoria,
my life would be complete.
One little sip, please.

Why couldn’t I leave?
There was the door.
It wasn’t locked.
One little sip, please.

Why? Why? Why?
Twitching, looking left, then right,
I sat back on my bed.
One little sip, please.

I was in a battle for sanity,
All because of that drink,
I needed it, I wanted it,
One little sip, please.

I’d die than not ever have it,
Not see it, again,
But I wanted life,
One little sip, please.

In the battle,
I won’t give up,
I won’t leave this room,
No drinks for me.

The jittery-ness definitely works for this, very expressive. :D

excellent, the repetition, but also the odd repeated line that you dont expect, help build the theme of addiction well... good luck
