| Demons of Addiction Demons of Addiction I’ve been here before, vowed never to go back, Thought I knew the signs and would be quick to react There must be more to this life: I have only existed All my problems deep inside I had denied and resisted. Suddenly they appear again staring me right in the face Arms wide open as if to embrace The path becomes narrower and then a dead end Still they summons me towards them trying to befriend They promise me a life where I will feel no pain I reach out my arm and slip the needle in my vein All the ground beneath me starts to give way Laughter breaks the silence as the demons run away I try stepping back to where my footing is secure But instead I am falling – it has all been a lure With my head in a mess all I can do is to shout “Please god throw me a rope and help me get out” Echoes of the laughter spin around in my head So confused and alone I wish I was dead Abuse is my past and my constant battle Will I ever be normal and able to settle? When your body has been abused in so many ways Your natural defense just leads you astray You think that drugs and alcohol are tools to block the pain Bringing out the warm sunshine and stopping the rain For some time it’s the answer and it works for a while But the fun soon stops and I’m back in denial Once again I find myself visiting hell Trying to escape reality it was inevitable I fell How many times must I endure this till I find peace? Or is it a life sentence with no early release. |
