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!!
