Addicted
I thought I would be this way forever
capable and free
I used to think I was clever
now I just struggle to see
substances have taken over
I've lost the most important key
the one that unlocks my innocence
the one that helps me dream
hopelessly addicted
and gravely afflicted
I'm not playing the victim
but will somebody please help me breath
