" The Monster "

   Oh God Wont you help me?
 I alone unlocked his cage,
 Now he leaves me not,
 Ive allowed him to find his place,

 His shackles tear into my brain,
 Refusing to pull away,
 My spirit has been extinguished,
 Is this the price I pay?

 I call him the monster,
 Only he controls my fate,
 I call him the monster,
 Endless supplies of hate,

 I call him the monster,
 Weighs me down with his bricks,
 I call him the monster,
 But you call him dopesick,

 He used to be so small,
 Would only come around a bit,
 Now he comes as he pleases,
 And leaves me in my shit,

 When he calls my name,
 I must drop everything and run,
 For he controls my hourglass,
 His will it must be done,

 This empty shell sits alone,
 If I could only alter time,
 Id put that monster where he belongs,
 And leave it all behind,
