|
One brief recollection of all the people
|
in my life that have come and gone
|
One brief fleeting moment of people I've loved
|
and people that I have wronged
|
Long lost are loved ones gone but this bird
|
cannot seem to mend it's broken wings
|
so the lust for life dissipates and a
|
new greed rises for the needful things.
|
Don't wanna think about it, I Indulge myself
|
distraction eases pain,
|
bury my emotions to protect myself.
|
Till I can't feel a fucking thing
|
I've dared to dream I've tried to live, but I've played it safe again
|
Just another slave to my vices now, Bring out your dead
|
Voices wither and crack then die
|
ringin' in my ear would sing me soft asleep
|
Deathly silence now is all I hear
|
has inspiration finally eluded me
|
My addiction, my illness, my only trusted friend
|
My addiction my illness my only childhood fiend.
|
Your twisted warm embrace engulfing all I tried to be
|
My body's breaking under arms that will not set me free
|
Locked in this cage that I've built myself
|
constructed out of twisted cold reminders of a life once lost
|
But I've found my way again.
|
Here among the wreckage and the vampires
|
I'll play it safe again, just another slave to my vices now.
|
My addiction, my illness, my only trusted friend
|
My addiction my illness.
