I've fallen deep into this addiction
My will is no longer mine
For my habits rule me now
Old Nick's blood runs through me
Robbing
Petty lies
Breaking peoples hearts
I have no soul anymore
For it is owned by another
Its hand grips me so tightly I can hardly breath
It lives in a big house somewhere
Laughing at me
For I am a slave
Its tool
I am no heroin
I just abuse it
It is my God as I snort in adoration
Almost praying to the temporary high
Will you come save me Orpheus
Will you not help me find my way back to a better place
My tread is weighed down
With these so heavy moods like rocks
My brain is numb no longer suited to thought
It is addled confused
Worn out stretched
Please save me
Help me escape the grasp of Hades
For I know not how
I have no strength or will
A forever-tonal wraith
Fate taken in doses
Play me your music
Help me rave away this dream
This deep black dream needs your light
To undo this knot that chokes me
On this chair the drop is so very far
For it is bottomless
But will it end
