Desperately searching to find your next fix

The serpent is whispering, you are transfixed

Calling your name, relentlessly beckons you

Searching in vain to quiet your mind

Pulling at your strings, chemical dependency

Preying on your mind, nothing left to lose

Staring darkness in the eyes has left you blind

Playing your last card, chips cashed in, chamber your last round, the sickness is settling in, agony of death will now begin

Psychosis has taken hold, the endgame will now unfold

Fatal dependency, a life lost to misery

Skin is dripping from your limbs

Sunken eyes lost in a sea of longing

Wait to die, the pain of death, unrelenting, flows through you

In anguish, you cry, searching for a way to end your grief and suffering

Wasted the chance you were given, everything could have been yours

For you, there is no tomorrow

Now, in the end, you amount to nothing

Fatal dependency, a life lost to misery

Fatal dependency, now, in the end, you amount to nothing
