Addiction
Clawing, tearing, ripping
from the depths of my soul
Deadly desire grips my heart
as I faintly fight for control
Lovely, blinding numbness
I desperately grasp for
Beautiful distraction floods my mind
refusing to allow me to focus
Torn between craving and sobriety
I keep slipping closer to the edge
Begging for final release
I repeat the cycle yet again
from the depths of my soul
Deadly desire grips my heart
as I faintly fight for control
Lovely, blinding numbness
I desperately grasp for
Beautiful distraction floods my mind
refusing to allow me to focus
Torn between craving and sobriety
I keep slipping closer to the edge
Begging for final release
I repeat the cycle yet again
