Hitting the hard road at a fast pace
Trying to win this addicts race
Holding my love close yet so far
No longer the one so I hit the bar
Shot after Shot like it has the best taste
Snorting a few, making a legal case
Drownig in feathers like a suicidal tide
Coming out from my shell just to hide
Running towards death to see the gold
Kissing poison to have the one I long to hold
Shadows creeping in to add true fear
Needle in hand promising not but one tear
Listening to my song to say goodbye to hope
The drugs that help to surrender, cope
Whispers echoe telling me to go
Leaving this hell, killing slow
Enter the masquerade thats life
Focusing on no good, only the strife
Crawl up, Make-up like a doll
Doll up, Kill love like an unwanted disease
Give up, Dont let lovless life be a tease

If you want it all to stop
When the pain gets to where you feel you have to run to the drugs turn around and run into the arms of the ones who love you most tell them dont let me go help me find the happy girl I know that is still within me and save my life .For the pain you are feeling now well honey its nothing compared to what you will feel if you dont run into their arms .
I hope you dont think I am preaching to you because im not I truly care what happens to you I really do

Honestly I am LOVING your input
It means a lot that someone is "preaching" {for lack of a better word}
to me.
You really are an awesome lady..
It means a lot to me that someone I know so little is willing to give me such a large amount of support and advice
