Cloud 9 Redefined
never again...
finally you can let go
no more pain
no more sorrow
no more suffering
not for you
it is your time
you can’t live your life in regret
you can’t give up your will to fight
when you feel like all the hope you had just disappeared
you gotta struggle to make it to the light
it’s on the other side, just beyond the darkness
just beyond the last bitter goodbye
it awaits you just beyond the very last tear you cry
death is just a part of life
this will be the last time she will ever have to go through the pain
this will be the last time she will ever have to stick that needle in her veins
never again will she have to hear her son ask why as she turns and walks away
wondering if this will be the last time she will ever get to see his face
for the very last time
she doesn’t have to keep fighting to survive
no more praying for her wings to grow one day so she can learn to fly
for the very last time he can tell himself this what i’m here to find
had to find a reason to stay alive
this is cloud 9 redefined
he spent his whole his god damn life
looking for something that didn’t exist
when he lived and breathed for the poison he crave
how can you ever find true happiness
nothin mattered in the world but the drug
and he lost all hope he would ever be free
he was ready just to end it on that night until a friend called and needed a G
then it happened in the blink of an eye, when he walked through that hotel door
he was looking for a quick fix just like her and that night turned into 4
four days and nights they spent in love as they both hit one more time
they were both found dead in each others arms overdose up on cloud 9
