I Do Apologize
Privacy please as I take a needle to
my vein
I do apologize but I can feel no
more pain
Deny me not the comfort I seek
With no remorse do I speak
For the ship of honor hath already
sailed
As I lost my desire to care the
moment hell was unveiled
I turn only to numbing cold
This charade they call life has
grown forever old
Just ten more CCs and you've heard
the last from me
That eternal light shall set my
sorrows free
Of two addicts I was born
Upon a rose I am merely the thorn
Upon tragedy I am the cause and
abnormality
Forgive me for just one more high
I do apologize
I must now say goodbye
I hang my head without hesitation
as I approach the pearly gates
Upon my judgement even the
almighty procrastinates
To my family I leave hurt and
shame
Yet another soldier lost to the game
Privacy please as I take a needle to
my vein
I do apologize but I can feel no
more pain
