' ' A S t o r y O f A n Addict ' '

Show me a way
To feel something besides pain
My nerves are frayed
As worries tumble in my brain
(Driving me insane)

I've tried to understand
I just don't get it
I can't get past it
I still don't comprehend
I'm just so pathetic
I am just an addict

I Can't
Ever Get Past It
I Am
A Creature Of Habit
It Is
A Story So Classic
This Is
A Story Of An Addict

Show me a way
To walk through these flames
My mind just quakes
Because I'm tired of these games
(Driving me insane)

I've tried to understand
I just don't get it
I can't get past it
I still don't comprehend
I'm just so pathetic
I am just an addict

I Can't
Ever Get Past It
I Am
A Creature Of Habit
It Is
A Story So Classic
This Is
A Story Of An Addict

I hate it, I love it
Sometimes I'm afraid
To go out in public
I crave it, I want it
And I guess it's okay
That I am haunted

I've tried to understand
I just don't get it
I can't get past it
I still don't comprehend
I'm just so pathetic
I am just an addict

I Can't
Ever Get Past It
I Am
A Creature Of Habit
It Is
A Story So Classic
This Is
A Story Of An Addict

One or two or three
To help me along my way
Throughout the day
More and more I need
To keep me feeling okay
Throughout the day

I can't get away
I can't get away

Hmm. Perhaps I've over done this subject.

Nah. every single idea helps tell the story of us recovering addicts. They may sound the same on the surface to someone who hasn't been through it but there is a different side in each one. another great write, brother!

Thanks 2numbers. I agree.
