You are not the needle sticking out of my arm as I nod off silently You are not the pipe lying in my lap as my body starts shaking violently You are not the pill case resting by my side as I fade away on the floor quietly You are not the bottle in my hand as I slam my car into a van filled with a family You are the substance shooting through my veins, relieving me of all my pain You are the smoke soaking my lungs, bringing me to a mystic plane You are the powdered capsules floating in my stomach, promising to take me far away You are the alcohol mixed into my blood, granting me courage to not care for this place

We're All Addicted To Someone
You are not the needle sticking out of my arm as I nod off silently You are not the pipe lying in my lap as my body starts shaking violently You are not the pill case resting by my side as I fade away on the floor quietly You are not the bottle in my hand as I slam my car into a van filled with a family You are the substance shooting through my veins, relieving me of all my pain You are the smoke soaking my lungs, bringing me to a mystic plane You are the powdered capsules floating in my stomach, promising to take me far away You are the alcohol mixed into my blood, granting me courage to not care for this place
