How Did I End Up Like This

How Did I End Up Like This?? I lie on the cold stone floor I lie and watch Watch the needle roll away Watch my life roll away How did I end up like this? I haven’t moved from this spot I’m stuck Stuck in a nightmare Where my only enemy is my addiction How did I end up like this? My parents had hopes for me Now only fear remains The fear of them losing me What have I done? How did I end up like this? I tried to run I tried to hide Nothing worked If it was only a bit of fun How did I end up like this? Now as I lie on the cold stone floor As I lie and watch Watch the needle roll away As I watch my life roll away I ask Do you want to end up like this? THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!!
