addiction kills

I saw you walk in with that grin you always wore.
with the hoody that you always gave me so I would be warm.
im cold now, freezing in the love that we always swore
breathless, tangled in what was from before
i feel the walls caving, what happened to the god above?
i feel my mind racing, gosh i feel stuck
they say addiction kills, am i finally dying 
because when i look in the mirror, i see a girl lost from crying 

you were my addiction, my weakest point
i thought losing you would completely break me
i guess i was right

lay me in the dirt, flowers over me 
play something soft, something i used to sing. 
because if addiction really kills, it'll happen to me
