Delusion

MY BOYFRIEND’S COMPULSION LIES IN THE STREETS
HIS CONSCIOUS RESIDES
DESIGNING THE PATH OF GETTING HIGH
HE KNOWS NOTHING ELSE, HE OFTEN FORGET ABOUT ME
 
I AM AN AFTER THOUGHT
FOR WHEN HE BECOMES SOBER
MISERY RESIDES WHEN THE DRUGS WEARS OFF
REFLECTIONS ON GETTING HOME TO ME... HIS GIRL
I AM HIS SANCTUARY WHEN HE PICKS UP THE CROSS
HIS SOBRIETY FROM HIS INTOXICATED WORLD
 
BUT THE SERPENT STILL CRAWLS
DISPELLING STAGNANT WITHDRAWALS
 
I REAFFIRM HIS THRONE
MY HEARTS INEBRIATIONS DEEMS HIM KING
BUT HE TRIUMPHS IN ANOTHER ZONE
LOVE’S ENCHANTMENTS IS NOT WHAT HE’S ASPIRING
 
NEVER COULD I COMPETE
WITH THE ALTITUDE OF DILUTION
LIFE’S EXPLOITATIONS USED TO BE SO SWEET
CAN’T TAKE THE DISREGARD, AVOIDING THE CONFUSION
HIS VICTORY SPELLS MY DEFEAT
DEPARTURE IS SET IN MOTION
