A big dose of opiate regret & goodbyes

You lift me up when I am down,
You silence the voices in my head
So I can easily rest in bed;

Because you see, when I take you
it's now not for the pain but thanks to the addiction that you've given me.

I want to break free from your hold
so I can be me again and stop doing as I'm told.

Everyone says we've been together far too long:
nobody knows I can be strong
so here I am trying to prove them wrong & say goodbye.

I don't like how you have made me one of 'them' ; I've always hated junkies
but here I am being one with 'em.

I'm losing my fucking mind, I've nothing left to live for because I've done them all wrong,
But you don't care
your effects keep feeding me with thoughts that are so wrong but sound so right in this fucked up mental state of mine

I've got to lay it all on the line & say goodbye because you have stripped me of my family,friends & that's not the life I wanted.
