Addiction

 

Looked down upon and thought less of;
Truthfully I couldn’t give a fuck.
Just give me the drugs and some inspiration;
I need a little intoxication.


Pour disease into my throat,
Let me have some alcohol.
Cleanse me of this demon inside,
Give me heart shaped drugs before I die.


Feed your addiction, have a smoke;
Nicotine, this stuff is no joke.
It’s deadly, it’s toxic, it will kill you for sure.
Yeah for sure, I believe you, come on man, I need it for this joint.


I don’t snort coke but I do, do lines;
I only inject to pass the time.
I’ve never actually been high;
Sorry, that was a blatant lie.


I need it to tell you, how I feel when I see you;
You’re beau…, God damn it, I can’t speak to you right now.
To hold you, to kiss you, to love you, to miss you.
I need to take an overdose, of tender loving care.


But I cannot tell you, for I am cursed by another;
Maybe a former lover, or a cheat and their lover.
Brain malfunction, mind destruction,
Conscious thoughts mixed by a subliminal corruption.


You paid the price for their life of vice;
Your divorced wife and fatherless child.
The boy on drugs, who came to no good,
Met a sticky end, when getting wasted with his friends.
