Pain Is a Drug

It comes down to who's down for you The person you want to call your boo The one you see a future with The one you want by your side when you face your biggest challenges But love can blind the soul Hide what isn't whole Create false hope in your mind Causing your whole life to go blind Love turns to pain You slowly forget your name Losing everything you once loved Pushing turning to shoved Pain becomes so normal your body goes numb Making your whole world go glum It doesn't hurt like it used to He doesn't feel what you're going through Nothing is left true Pain turns into a drug You get so addicted it's just numb Your life turns into a blur Your words start to slur You slap a smile on your face Pretend to be happy and show grace Hide underneath all the hurt Pain is your drug now Breath in breath out and take a vow
