Addiction
Addiction
I ask myself at times
Why do I do this to myself?
Am I a glutton for punishment?
Or is it something else
I can't put my finger on it
But one thing is true
My life revolves around you
You're a drug
Or some kind of bug
That makes me sick
When I get a fix
I'm hooked I cannot lie
But I cannot sever this tie
For you my infection
No, you're my addiction
I'm too far in
To escape you're grasp
I do what ever you ask
No matter what the task
I ask my self "Why?
Because every time
I take a dose of you
It tears my heart in two
You're a drug
Or some kind of bug
That makes me sick
When I get a fix
I'm hooked I cannot lie
But I cannot sever this tie
For you my infection
No, you're my addiction
I need a cure
Rehabilitation or more
But I want to be myself again
I just want it to end
But I know everything happens for a reason
You're a drug
Or some kind of bug
That makes me sick
When I get a fix
I'm hooked I cannot lie
But I cannot sever this tie
For you my infection
No, you're my addiction
How long will this addiction last?
No one knows but me
I shape my story
Soon it will pass
Once I learn from my past
