Dead inside
You try to hide that you're dead inside.
Still traumatized that your girlfriend died.
You saved her life with ice cold water twice.
Third time you werent around
She chose the needle over you.
You chose the needle over her too.
Now uour Using your pain as an excuse to let the beast loose, to wreak havoc on every facet of life.
So high you couldn't even cry when you grandfather died.
You isolate and hide
Because you can't deny
Your dead inside

Your dead inside

I've never used a needle, and yet somehow I'm still able to identify with the addiction and frustration woven into your words. I was grabbed by the very first line: "You try to hide that you're dead inside." I immediately identified with your words, and I was compelled to continue reading.
