Wake Me When I'm Cured

Behind closed doors We constantly stroked our addictions You got me hooked Onto this deadly affliction You fed my hunger And tried to feed right back from me You should've known it wasn't happening I couldn't wake up Turn off my conscience Let my mind turn pure Nothing but time can fix what has been lost And it's killing me So wake me up when I'm cured You left me to die When I had nothing left for you Looking to get your fix You ignored that I cared so much for you With my lover now The habit's scars are leaving a mark now Skin to skin, my mind is breaking I can't see the end Turn off my conscience Let my mind turn pure Nothing but time can fix what has been lost And it's killing me So wake me up when I'm cured
