Addiction

Young man turns to the east
Beginning to run, he's afraid of the beast
Trapped between yesterday and tomorrow
Afraid of the pain and sorrow
He picks up speed and cocaine
To wash away all the pain
Leaving behind a disaster
It's ok, it turns to plaster
Seeking away from here
Reaching for another year
No one to reach out a helping hand
Ground become the sinking sand
Engaging in a battle
Now he's back in the saddle again
Grasping from the slippery past again
In a world where nothing lasts
He falls to his knees and prays
He prays, oh god please take me away

Away from all the pain
Looking at all my shame
Nothing to prove to anyone
Oh please let me be numb
