Indifferently Strung Out


I realize that I'm free from you But in reality, do I want to go? Your love an addiction I could not resist Still suffering from the scars that don't show I know that it's best if I leave But the frustration of it all makes me scream and shout Your love is like smoking, your love is my drug I'm definitely addicted, I'm definitely strung out But I think it's worth it all All the damage and all the pain Masked by my confused feelings Satisfaction to my heart, I do gain I've been told if I don't let you go There will be no more damage to repair For you will one day destroy who I am What I am, leaving my world in tears But I' m okay with that, for I would have LIVED Lived knowing I fed my addiction No regrets,accepted affliction It was true, their prediction And still I can't see the loss I would have changed nothing I guess my lesson was untaught At the end of the day I've lost all and learnt nothing
