Dear addiction it’s time go our separate directions
Thanks for the time we shared but I’m kicking you to the curb

I don’t need you to function we`re parting at this junction
So I can live my life free not with you controlling me

I want my life back to how it was before the dependence
On substances my equilibrium’s arch nemesis

Every day I feel like Satan in black satin panties
I’m down and unresponsive held captive with no motive

I just want to live my life without being infected
With false confidence and blurred drunken confidante’s

I need a constant balance and my conscience not to be absent
Not to be accredited with anymore vengeful grievances

You led me into depression a weapon of mass self destruction
It’s time to fight back again the sword with the pen

As soon as I see some light I see the same options in sight
Addiction leave me be rest in peace this is the end for you and me

****************************************************************

(Voice of addiction)

I got your letter sorry but you’re stuck with me forever
I’m the voice of your fears the voice you can’t escape in your ear

You need me you can’t fight it you love me know you won’t stop
I’m every glass of vodka you shot every pill you’ve ever popped

Addicted to alcohol gambling drugs love and nicotine,
That AA meeting scared you so bad you convinced yourself

You didn’t have a problem with drinking drugs or anything
You`ll just drink less take drugs less but your still depressed

We both know the truth’s hard to swallow now it’s been exposed
Dead ends at every road come to me I’ll relieve your woe

Whatever you can get your hands on you go full blown
Now your new addiction seems to be legal prescriptions

Paracetamol codeine aspirin washed down with gin
Amoxicillin ibuprofen topped off with cocaine

The buzz in your brain takes away the pain
You can’t live without me you love me come back to me don’t doubt me

***************************************************************

Dear addiction I told you in the first letter this is over
I’m taking drastic action I’m going to hide in sanction

You won’t be able to get me there I’ll be safe and not scared
Get this weight off my shoulders I don’t need you any longer

(V.O.A)
You can run but can’t hide I’m not behind you I’m inside
You fool our souls are intertwined aligned as one

No their not! I’ve had enough let me go leave me alone

(V.O.A)
I can’t. We made a pact remember that night you begged me
To take the pain away from your mother being taken away

Yeah? So what? I was young and dumb lost and numb
I was only sixteen you manipulated and tricked me

(V.O.A)
No I didn’t you came to me all I did was set you free

I’m not free your haunting me please just let me be!
Your all I can hear in my ear you’re the screams in my dreams

(V.O.A)
You should have read the small print it said we`d be together forever

It must have been a misprint!

(V.O.A)
Your an addict just accept it.

NEVER!

************************************************************

I won’t accept it you wretched piece of shit I CAN quit
I’m not throwing the towel in I’m not going let you win

I’ll fight you till my last breath
I’m going to break your fucking neck

(V.O.A)
You can’t I’m a spirit but not like the ones you neck! Get it?

That’s funny a comedian as well now are we?

(V.O.A)
Well I try, but your humour hides the tears inside
All those cold lonely nights alone you sat there and cried
HAHAAAA!!! All I wanted to do was comfort you

Fuck you! You don’t care you just want to destroy me

(V.O.A)
You’re doing that yourself. Remember those suicidal dreams?
When you woke up you wished it hadn’t been a dream

You piece of shit, you’re the cause of my low self esteem

(V.O.A)
That’s right blame me, that’s your life’s theme tune
Back into your cocoon on that island marooned

Your sinking back into depression I can help it’s not a problem
Come back to me.

No addiction leave me be!
