Never Again


I can’t think I can’t breath What is this surrounding me Is it hell Is it life? What is this? All this strife We all survived living through This hell thats woven From our tears But what is this This brand new strife I never knew Never thought This could happen to me No one else thought it to My mom was never one to do A drink so strong A drink so deadly Never thought Never knew What this all could do Corrupting my world Never thought Never knew This was the end I’m pulling through Never thought Never knew I couldn’t do what I wanted I never thought and I never knew That this was the way My life would turn Fucking bitch Leaning on the monster Stupid Father never knew The danger of owning the beast He let it sit He let it boil He kept it there Freezing cold For the Turmoil She took it all Every Last drop Never thought Never knew Mother what This would do To you Could my world be ending, Or is this my new beginning? Monster leave me Monster go No one wants you Even though You taste so good Sliding cold down my throat Such an evil little thing You tear Family apart You don’t even have to try Just there in the freezer you must sit and Wait Never thought Never knew What this could do It’s a waste Like the ice Of my world Wearing thin I don’t know How much longer I can take All this pain. Wearing through Wearing thin This is my lullaby Sweetly sleep Mother dear For you drank yourself away Monster look Monster see What you have done You crashed into Our lives so grave Never thought Never knew What this shit Could do to you Never thought….. Never knew… Never… Never… Never again.
