I just want to say,
I'm sorry.
I know, I was wrong,
it was the drugs all along.

I don't want to be the one,
to have to break your heart today.
But I'm sorry my darling,
I'm not here to stay.

I'm a lover, not a fighter,
and I'm not going to fight this.
There's something about this baby,
something I can't resist.

I have never been addicted,
to anything but love.
But I will admit to you now,
I'm addicted to this drug.

I can quit love,
and I can quit games,
but babe, I just can't quit *******.

I may be a fool,
and I may be insane,
but babe, I'm in love with *******.

I don't want you to save me,
so please don't even try.
I want to be addicted,
I don't care if I die.

There's no return for me baby,
just leave me here to die.
If I want to die addicted,
baby, it's my life.

I can quit love,
and I can quit games,
but babe, I just can't quit *******.

I may be a fool,
and I may be insane,
but babe, I'm in love with *******.

And when I,
finally die,
bury me right by your side.

And please,
always know,
I may have chosen drugs,
but I always loved you more.
