I Am Meth
I am Meth,
I have no soul,
I will devour your body,
and make you so old.
I will eat holes in your brain,
and make your body twitch,
I'm worse than Poison Ivey,
I am the devils itch.
I will take your family,
I'll wreck their lives,
as they try to save you,
I'll teach you to lie.
Working for a living,
I'll take that too,
when you use me,
nothing else matters to you.
Broke, and alone,
and out on the street,
you don't have a chance,
with a friend like me.
My warning is clear,
just look around,
I'm everywhere,
in every home town.
Don't blame your friends,
they are just like you,
addicted to me,
acting like fools.
I don't like your loved ones,
some get in my way,
especially the ones,
that won't let me stay.
You know me,
and I know you,
I will take your life,
that is what I do.
