the needle is my only friend

All I wanted was to ease this pain
   

     So I stabbed the needle in another vein
   

     I watched the scenery change again
   

     I hugged the needle like it was my friend
   

     Where to go now
   

     What to do now
   

     I sit and wait for the answers to come
   

     But where on earth will they fall from
   

     I hope heaven is what I expected
   

     The drugs are just what I accepted
   

     And now there all I have 
   

     And now there all I know
   

     Just to be free for one more time
   

     To sit around and wait in line
   

     As soon as the dope hits my blood
   

     I live life like I know I should
   

     Then were back at the start again
   

     Where the needles my only friend
   

     Hope is far from where I am
   

     So messed up I can hardly stand
   

     Won't you drag me out of the slums
   

     Where I hide 
   

     Where I get my next fix from
   

     I hear the beating of drums
   

     Or maybe that's just my racing heart
   

     From the all the coke inside my arm
   

     Just a junkie with a half of a start
   

     Needing the dope just to keep me warm
