In our little world each day
We live we deal with things we call addictions
Sever, oh how we crave the substance
We feel the need and its presence to survive

I have no will to rise from this hell
I never wanted to become a slave to this master
But as I look upon what I've created I realize ruin
My sights bring me great pain and grief, it wont release

So many are they, coming without notice
Believe me this is not what I wanted
Bleeding slowly, digressing, feeling the same
Felling we have a handle on our hidden vices

Taking steps to overcome this monster
But its power is great and drags me back
Worse off then when I started
I want to get out but I'm ashamed and fear what you might think

Even if I were to over come get the demon out of my life
The battle lasts an eternity and I struggle every day
Flesh is weak, and will can be strong but its mind over matter
I live for the day and go through the motions, forgive me if I fall

So many are they, coming without notice
Believe me this is not, not what I wanted
Blinding slowly, digressing, feeling the same
Felling we have a handle on our hidden vices
