I've seen the needle as it caresses the skin
I've seen the torture and the damage within
I've seen it take and never give back
I've seen the loss and lack of respect
I've seen the needle as it ***** out the life
The milking of blood, reaching for heights
When your in the fix your in control
Not seeing how deep, the rip in the soul
I've seen the needle take it away
I've seen life fade to the color of gray
I've seen the eyes that hide it so well
Gazing deep into the bowels of Hell
I've seen the needle locked in a scream
As the nightmare takes over the dream
I've seen it all with little hope left
Until it all shatters in death
I know it's been around for years but the recent high profile deaths from ****** and hearing how many people are addicted to this madness just has me thinking and praying for these tormented souls...
