More Lethal Than Poison

They warned me of alcohol, saying it would wreck my liver, They warned me of cigarettes,saying they'd choke my lungs, They warned me of pills, saying they'd numb my mind, They warned me of needles, saying they'd ruin my veins, They warned me of powders, saying they'd stop my heart, They warned me of smoke, saying it would blind me, But no one warned me about you. No one told me you'd destroy everything. No one told me you'd leave scars deeper than any drug could. You were the deadliest addiction.
