A Little Weekend Dabble

by Barbertron

How did I get here from where I was before, A little weekend dabble and never wanted more, I cannot become addicted, too good for that I'm sure, But looking back I underestimated the power and the lure, Half a packet here and there become 1 or 2 a week, The lure of the white powder, I start becoming weak, Sneaky packets in the day, trying to conceal, Then when caught, convincing people that it's no big deal, Lying to your loved ones, lying all day long, Hiding from everyone and singing the paranoia song, Once I pop I cannot stop till all the powder goes, Doesn't seem to matter that I can't smell through my nose, Nobody understands me or what I'm going through, To them they think it's just a joke and don't believe it's true, But I can confirm I'm an addict and I want you all to know, And help me get away from this evil pure white snow, I want to stop, I want it gone, I want it out my life, I want to be a decent Dad and have a loving wife, Cocaine has been so evil and sneaky in its way, Never think that you are too good to be lead astray, Addiction is for junkies and skanks I used to spout, Now I realise I didn't know what I was talking about, I've nearly lost all I love and never felt so low, I really need you to go Cocaine, you really have to go.
