This addiction has tortured me 
For days, months and years
Its haunted every step I've taken
Rooted deep, my greatest fear

The pain is overwhelming
Without it, who would I be?
But with it, I'm empty inside
And in constant misery

Many times I've tired
Knowing I must let it go
But I continue to relapse 
And spend life alone

Why am I hanging on
To time that doesn't care
I have to be strong
For my life I must spare

With this voice inside me
And all the strength within
I will move forward
Waiting for life to begin
