The Voice of Cocaine
Do you know that you should fear me?
Do you know what I can do?
You believe that you are free
But I'm controlling you
At first you kind of like me
Just nice to have around
But eventually you'll need me
Together we'll be bound
And then the battle will be
It's sure to be a long and lonely fight
And you've convinced yourself that I'll will
Even though it isn't right
You have a chance but only one
Turn your back and walk away
But if you do that I'll have some fun
I'll haunt you night and day
I'll be everything you need
And own the soul you try to save
I'll either leave your heart to bleed
Or I'll put you in your grave
