Stronger Than Me
All it took was one dose an I was hooked
As the feeling raced through my body
I became numb, fierce and fearless
Within moments those feelings changed
and turned into tears and regret
What have I done
There is no turning back now
What have I done
What is happening to me
This is not who I am
This is not me at all
I don’t like the person I have just become
I vow to never let this happen again
I simply can not fight my addiction
All it took was one dose and now I can live
can’t live without it
The feeling that flows through my veins
through my body helps me to cope
Do you know what I feel
Will you understand my addiction
Do you know how to help someone in need
Someone with my problem
Someone addicted to pain
