I Do Apologize

Privacy please as I take a needle to my vein I do apologize but I can feel no more pain Deny me not the comfort I seek With no remorse do I speak For the ship of honor hath already sailed As I lost my desire to care the moment hell was unveiled I turn only to numbing cold This charade they call life has grown forever old Just ten more CCs and you've heard the last from me That eternal light shall set my sorrows free Of two addicts I was born Upon a rose I am merely the thorn Upon tragedy I am the cause and abnormality Forgive me for just one more high I do apologize I must now say goodbye I hang my head without hesitation as I approach the pearly gates Upon my judgement even the almighty procrastinates To my family I leave hurt and shame Yet another soldier lost to the game Privacy please as I take a needle to my vein I do apologize but I can feel no more pain
