Addictions Don't Quit
I am being called by all my past temptations
Alongside the new ones that have formed
A bottle of booze and a newly sharpened knife
Call my name with relentless repetition
Adding to the noise of my negative thoughts
And I love you's from my best of friends
Driving me insane, I don't know how much I can take
Eventually the calls will be sweetened in tune
They will appeal to me more than before
I will be doomed to drink from another bottle
With blood running from my arms
I know on that day I'll look at myself and feel shamed
Alongside the new ones that have formed
A bottle of booze and a newly sharpened knife
Call my name with relentless repetition
Adding to the noise of my negative thoughts
And I love you's from my best of friends
Driving me insane, I don't know how much I can take
Eventually the calls will be sweetened in tune
They will appeal to me more than before
I will be doomed to drink from another bottle
With blood running from my arms
I know on that day I'll look at myself and feel shamed

you quit addictions. life longing for love always finds a way to pain. but if theres one thing ive learned its when you have that love and you take it for granted, you'll lose that love and you'll forget you ever had it.
