One pill, two pill, three pill, four.
Three swallowed as the last hits the floor.
Addiction is a bitch, Catches you when you least expect it.
Grabs you by the neck, pulls you to accept it.
Fighting back is the only way to survive,
Doubting every truth, covering it with a lie.

Strings attached,
Your body a match,
Light it, Ignite it,
Watch it catch.
See the rage, see the flames
Watch the ash as it rains.
Pull me down, Hold me tight
Struggle, Put up a fight.
Slowing down, Crashing hard-
Hit the ground, flames holding tight.
Soul and mind, left to burn,
stomach and emotions, left to churn-
all day and all night.
