Addiction

by BrokenHeartsAri

Addiction
  1. Sitting in your room
  2.  
  3. trynna figure out life
  4.  
  5. I tell you that I don't like some stuff
  6.  
  7. but you keep doing it
  8.  
  9. I can't stand it you know
  10.  
  11. As you blow smoke in my face
  12.  
  13. You know I don't like
  14.  
  15. 10 minutes later
  16.  
  17. A phone call from my father saying I'm no good
  18.  
  19. I hang up the phone cause I don't have time
  20.  
  21. I ask you, "May I try"
  22.  
  23. *gives me the vape
  24.  
  25. You tell me it's about time
  26.  
  27. This feels good
  28.  
  29. all stress gone
  30.  
  31. feeling free
  32.  
  33. Now I'm an addicted
  34.  
  35. to hearing pain
  36.  
  37. and smoking it away
  38.  
  39. Blow smoke in my face
  40.  
  41. Voices saying I'm going to end up dead
  42.  
  43. shut them out
  44.  
  45. take a few more inhales
  46.  
  47. I ask them will you be able to save what has already fallen?
  48.  
  49. Blow smoke in my face
