Addicted

To live the life of an addict,
Their future so bleak, it is easy to predict,
I know for my own life it has been,
Living life to the fullest and full of sin,
Day after day,
Work to do so I can score, no time to play,
I am off to steal whatever is open or not locked,
Are you shaking your head because you are in shock?
In and out of rehab centers like a revolving door,
Having to fuck for dope, this makes me a whore,
So that I can feed my starving addiction,
It is a terrible thing not to mention,
On nights that I do not sleep,
Nightmares my tired brain gets to keep,
Skin sunken all around my bones,
Not making any sense while talking on the phone,
When I awake whatever the time,
My first thought is where did I stash that dime?
Eventually everyone around you cannot take anymore,
Turning their backs because they have no clue what is to be in store,
My tolerance is now so high,
It's a waste of money so why even try,
Every word that comes out of my mouth is a lie,
I shall burn every bridge and destroy my family tie,
I hate what you have done to me,
Go away for once please, I am too weak to fight, just let me be!
