Poison

The Addiction

Here we go here we go again

The constant fight between my mind and him

Here we go I'm laying down again

Because I'm so addicted to my sin

And I know I'm drinking my poison

Father forgive me even though I'll sin again

And again

And I know

That I know what it is that I do

But I am not as strong as you

Temptation

Wraps me up inside a whim

Carries me away on a high

That I can not comprehend

There's a breath inside my lungs

That won't release unless it's in

The lungs of a man who can not save me from within

With in me

What is this song?

What are these words?

Where is the point?

They won't be heard.

They're falling on

Deafened ears.

Where is your voice?

Please call my name.

To rid me of

All of my shame

And execute

All of my fears.
