The Dark

Indulge 'til I can't feel no more Smoke chokes my throat, and then I hit the floor No, can't do this anymore I've gone to far, but still I carry on Hope I don't wake up tomorrow Shut off my brain, drug to avoid the sorrow Cope, another pill to swallow I numb my pain, but can't put down the bottle Will I always be trapped inside? Or are there ways to leave the mind? When I was young, never knew why I just don't feel right Since then, I lie awake at night Can't sleep through my internal fight What will my fate be should I die? Will I find peace beyond this life? And if I go, will my loved ones be alright? Call my name in the dark, so I can find you Fall like rain from above, show me how to love like I'm designed to Am I a slave to addiction? Filling out my own prescription Never imagined that I'd end up this way Despite the choices I've made And now I'm living with a foot in the grave Never learn from my mistakes Because my sanity has all but decayed My state of constant disarray All alone in the shadow I portray Call my name in the dark, so I can find you Fall like rain from above, show me how to love like I'm designed to Cause I'm bent out of shape from waiting, and I'm so sick always sedating myself I'm barely hanging on Carve my name on the wall, if I should be wrong Indulge 'til I can't feel no more Smoke chokes my throat, and then I hit the floor No, I can't do this anymore I've gone to far, but still I carry on Hope I don't wake up tomorrow Shut off my brain, drug to avoid the sorrow Cope, another pill to swallow I numb my pain
