Addictions

Where do all the lonely people go,
When they numb their lives away? 

Who will stick a needle in their
Arm today to ease the pain?
Who will pop a pill or take a hit,
To make life more ok?

Who would die to feel alive?
The emptiness might not survive.
Who will take a drink today,
You know what takes it all away.

Who could cope?
This place is insanity.
Dreams of hope,
Replaced with reality. 

Where do all the lonely people go,
When they numb their lives away? 
If all the dying embers burnt together,
A few could find their way.

Who will eat a pound of cake,
And add the fat to lose the rage?
Who will drop a nooner off,
With their cell phone in the bathroom stall?
 
Who will steal just for the rush?
Who will gamble just a bit too much?
Who keeps staying at work real late?
You know what takes it all away.

Who'd have know,
We'd give in this easily?
Up in smoke,
Our hopes are now broken dreams.

I am alright,
With my addictions.
They suit me fine,
And they don't get in my way.
Nothing to fight.
Don't wanna fix them.
I'm a little high,
But that's ok.

And they don't get in my way.

Don't wanna fix them.
I'm a little high,
But that's ok.

I have the right,
To judge me only.
And I will try,
To see things your way.
Don't wanna fight.
Ain't gonna fix things.
I'm a little high,
It helps keep me sane.
