It used to be a need like addiction.
Broken creeping open at the seams.
One person one relentless affliction.
You've been my remedy.
Ointment to my pains.
Soothing the carcinogens in my veins.
Its taken time countless characters.
You've weeded out the unwanted.
Fear and weakness thwarted.
A love incomparably intense.
My perspective now shifted.
Like a viscous veil you lifted.
Building on what's left of me.
You are no longer my necessity

It used to be a need like addiction.
Broken creeping open at the seams.
One person one relentless affliction.
You've been my remedy.
Ointment to my pains.
Soothing the carcinogens in my veins.
Its taken time countless characters.
You've weeded out the unwanted.
Fear and weakness thwarted.
A love incomparably intense.
My perspective now shifted.
Like a viscous veil you lifted.
Building on what's left of me.
You are no longer my necessity
