UnorthodoxHarmonies - Addicted Lyrics

The rain is coming down, and the thunder's rolled in by now
Your veins are all empty, and the foam and blood pour out your mouth
There on the ground you lie patiently waiting to be found
Addiction has ruined your life and now those you surround
You never really knew the effects you had on those that you loved
Your talent and patience was graciously wasted on us
All that we wanted was for you to be free from the drugs
But you didn't want to reach out because you thought you'd create a fuss
Oh
"I'll just take a hit" are famous last words
And "Just a little bit" can take a turn for the worst
And "If I need to, I'll quit" is a slippery slope
"I'm not addicted" is the falsest of hopes
Now the pain you felt has amplified addictions of your peers
A little ripple turns into a big tsunami of depression and fear
Bottles have been emptied and sobriety's been broken after so many years
For those you loved, addiction's all that's left after broken careers
Oh
"I'll just take a hit" are famous last words
And "Just a little bit" can take a turn for the worst
And "If I need to, I'll quit" is a slippery slope
"I'm not addicted" is the falsest of hopes
"I'm the only one it hurts" is ignorant to say
When those who see you hurting witness your final days
And "Without it I feel worse" doesn't mean that won't change
If the cycle can't reverse you'll start to slowly slip away
"I'll just take a hit" are famous last words
And "Just a little bit" can take a turn for the worst
And "If I need to, I'll quit" is a slippery slope
"I'm not addicted" is the falsest of hopes
