Track Marks On My Heart

( TRACK MARKS ON MY HEART ) I swear up and down ill never touch it again and really I've tried, but every time I feel down its the place that I hide. I relapse and relapse each time leaves me hollow, each score brings the high then depression to follow. Dependent on you this fleeting obsession, the fear and self loathing too deep to mention. I keep coming back though I know it's unhealthy, I say I just use it till I'm happy and wealthy. Every time a new prick a hole to a world apart, my love seeps out in blood from the track marks on my heart. I trust you with my son, my secrets and my life, but I can't trust that i would ever be healthy if you were my wife.
