Altering your state of mind
It’s the drug you crave
Legal and new
In excess
You find abuse a friend
Caring and faithful
It offers you love
And understanding
You wouldn’t have it any other way
But the genuine is fake
The splendid is paste
Disintegrating
Once held together
Now it crumbles apart
Your innocence dies
Entangled, you cry
Release fades away
You welcome the night
You can’t kick it out
It knows that you won’t
You’re a slave to its lies
And everyone knows
The beast you can’t tame
Is your mind ripped apart
You have lost what you must
Now you’re free not to fear
Somewhere silenced inside
Is the will to survive
