They all told me you would be bad for me,
no one ever thinks the first time they take a drug they're going to get hooked,
every time I was with you, my eyes dilated with desire,
I wanted more I needed more and you were the only source,
every time I put my lips against you when I pulled away it was hard to breathe,
You distorted my reality I couldn't tell who was friend and who was foe, I couldn't tell you were the only one out to get me,
all I saw was red you really fucked me over then,
all I saw was red when I looked in his eyes and saw me,
I saw myself the first time I took you,
he didn't know in a couple weeks he’ll look in someone else's eyes and see himself.
I almost killed myself that night,
I survived but not everyone survives withdrawal,
how many more lives do you have to ruin before you find your own drug,
I hope it's soon,
and even though I hate you, when you overdose from his kiss,
and he leaves causing you to crash from your high,
I hope you survive.
I hope you survive...
