Victims of Addiction

Addiction is a habit,
thats very hard to kick.
while waiting on the dopeman,
for that instant fix.

Your blindsided by this drug,
it's such a heavy haze.
in our minds we're okay
it's just a little phase.

your tearing the family apart,
and only they can tell.
as you come up with excuses,
why your living in such hell.

you can lay it down,
cuz quitting just a fear.
dont you think it's worth it,
inspite of all they're tears.

so dont let the drug,
be an interferance.
take control now,
cuz you can make the differance.
