My Escape

I feel the cravings start
Should I give in or fight
I know what's right

But I feel so lost alone deserted
I kneed that special med

As I put the needle in my vain
I feel sane
Troubles and worries leave my mind

I lye on the floor
Wanting more
Just take away my pain I beg you sweet heroin

Rush through me take my dark thoughts away
At least for one day
Give me a break from lifes burdens

Grant me my wish
Fufill my objective
Who cares anyway

Sweet lustrous gift give me hope to stay alive for one more day
