Addictive Behavior
Addiction as it seems
Lurks in the depth of mind
As we try to gain control
We leave ourselves behind
We turn into immoral beings
With this substance that we crave
Things are fine and dandy now
But to it, we became a slave
Engrossed in our own debauchery
Is how we learn to live
Always uncaring and unfeeling
This stuff drains us like a sive
We go on for years and years
Living this dreadful fabrication
Getting high became a way of life
As well as our occupation
Until one day we stop and think
What happened to the old me
It seems I sold my soul to the devil
And he will forever collect his fee
We all must reach a point
When were tired of all this
Then we'll be reborn spirituality
And seek happiness and bliss
To learn this go to meetings
Look deep within your mind
To thy own self be true
And personal freedom you will find
