Bright light oblivion

 
Say that you need it
Let it take hold
It swallows your world
It's out of control
It's just an addiction
It's just what you crave
You can stop if you want to
But just not today.
This sandstorm you're feeling
Its not just inside
Others can see you
As you peer through the blinds
I'm not that way
I'm not like the rest
What the hell have I done?
I've caused such a mess
I wanna go back now
Let me off of this ride.
I just wanna go home
Please...just open my eyes
But its not a nightmare
Its simply my life
No quiet persuasion
I need an army of mine.
It's robbed and it's plundered
Its taken my youth
But there's still time to fix this
No there's not...
I need you.
But wait you're addicted.
We do it the same
I with my needle
And our cc's of pain
You can't even look
When it first breaks the skin
I gag from the sight
But I let it go in.
Oh my god we are fallen
How long do we have?
We did this ourselves
The knife's in our hand.
This ship is sinking
We both can swim
Take my hand...
close your eyes
Let the water wash in.
For the first time in ages
I feel at peace
In this bright light oblivion
I have all that I need
It can't  hurt you
I promise...
it won't find you here
It won't hold us hostage
There's no need for fear.
