Addiction 11-15-2009

Shaky hands, and aching bones,
my body's breaking in two.
Tortured by the pain I feel,
in everything I do.

Blurred vision, 
cloudy is what I see.
Lost inside the mist of it all, 
searching for a little relief.

Addicted to the evil within,
I have completely lost control.
I surrendered to the demons inside,
the devil now has my soul.

Failing in everything I do,
give me one reason I should try.
Darkness fills me up inside,
sometimes I want to die.

Starving for so much more in life,
wanting to have it all.
Trying like he** to make things right,
but every time I take a fall.
