Sweet Sedation

Sweet Sedation

Sweet sedation set me free

From tomorrow thoughts, from today's concerns altough be it temporary

So many thoughts so many ideas but little memory 

My eyes lay down my face a frown and in my thoughts I'm all but free

You are the cure and the disease but at least no anxiety

Escape the box & pick the locks, disillusion of controling my own destiny

Night after night, an unwinnable fight. 

How I wish for sobriety 

Sweet sedation, O please will you just let me be me

Desiring for the unobtainable, please just set me free

You have became the curse of every verse, the knot in my family tree

You killed my Mother, poisoned my Father and now you're after me 

Tonight in my thoughts you are the force that keeps me thinking erratically

O sweet sedation, only time will tell 

For tonight we're tight and it feels so right like a tortoise inside it's shell

Sweet sedation, one day I may break the spell

You lift me up then drop then from aheigh

Back to my living hell

With today's world and how bad addiction is... This is a really important message for people with little knowledge about addiction.  I was just in a 2 day debate on Facebook talking about addiction to people who believed it's a choice not a a disease.  I dis agreed.  Addiction will haunt family's.  Its genetic. People can say other wise.. I dnt know how old u are. But i also to became an addict at 19. My clean date is December 2009.

Yes you're one hundred percent right Lynzi, and that line is true.

I'm in my mid thirties and my clean date was three days ago

But every passing moment is another chance to change right?

Thanks for your feedback
