Hooked

Hooked Lying in this little room Tied down to this bed Men walking round in white coats While insanity in my head Laughing, talking, hanging Out with my friends Led down a lonesome road Where I could see no end One little taste, I Swear that’s all I took Now I’m lying in this little room Strung out and hooked I am dreaming of a life I wish I almost had But I’m lying in this little room With my heart feeling sad My friends are all gone Nowhere to be found They led me on a wild ride And then they let me down I’m in this little place So cold, and dark I can’t feel my body I can’t feel my heart I took a final vow And took a new oath No more little rooms Or men in white coats One night of happiness For only a short time Restraints holding me down While I slowly lose my mind My life now for everyone Has become an open book Lying in this little room Strung out and hooked
