*Addiction*

*Addiction*

I used to say things like,

"I've never done anything like that..I just couldn't"

Already beaten to the ground by the devil through others, Always told myself I wouldn't

But then one day the devil crept in and stole my soul;

"Once tortured by his presence, Now my presence is the torture"

Snapping back into reality, now fearing each day that goes by

I cant remember the last time I actually felt these tears that I cry...

My mind is in a state of detachment from the world as I sit and stare

In my heart I know I can conquer this addiction, So I'll be back again I swear
