Needle Me In

Once again, needle me in.
I enjoy releasing poison,
Through your scarred skin.

A prick to poke daily, yes I win!
I take any respect, and self confidence.

You blame me for problems, you've had since back then.
As If you can't believe, state took away your kids.

Look closer into the mirror.
And see the person.

Who you lost long ago
Keep on running.

Your just about to do 
Exactly what I said.
Hold your arm out 
Full of dope, needle me in.

Ashamed now are we?
From all the bruising.
The feel of being high
Is temporary.

When you see tomorrow's light
In the morning.
Your still you.
Do something positive about it.

Don't be afraid.
Change is a blessing.
To save a soul from hell. 
And all his demons.

Count your lucky stars.
For all of your scars.
Every one tells a story. 
That made you who you are.
Being a drug addict. 
You've come this far.

This new beginning with Him,
give all glory to God.
For He will never leave you.
 Alone in the dark.

He shines light to the path.
Where you have always belonged.

A place with happiness
People with loving hearts.
You have family who do care
Be sure to Thank them all.

Needle me in to
The past back so far
Never to be brought back. 
Now over and beyond.
