Absence of Control

Oh Drugs,
it's been lovely
it's been lonely
it's been a ride 

but i'll never get better
with you by my side 
I'll never get better 
I know cause I've tried

Oh Drugs 
It's  been emotional 
it's been tough 
and i'm tired
 
but it's never enough
you're my only desire 
it's never enough 
I need to get higher
it's never enough 
and your grip just gets tighter

Oh Drugs
i'm falling deep 
I over think 
i'm sinking low

Oh Drugs,
i'm falling fast 
in frozen time 
and dying slow

Oh Drugs, 
I have succumbed 
for you I'm weak
I love you so

suffering in silence 
eyes without a soul

Oh Drugs, 
It's been comforting 
in un-comforting ways
but till death do us part
asphyxiating in your haze 
you took all that I've got 
and you numbered my days
it's no longer any fun 
I need your poison in my veins

Oh Drugs
how we dance 
with the death so divine 
your empty cold nothing 
sends shivers down my spine
in your poisonous web 
I have become intertwined 
I'm just  living to exist 
and existing just to die
