I've never felt so alone.
Until I felt the piercing sting of you.
Then I felt nothing but joy, from my best friend, my lover.
The honeymoon period would not last forever though.
This soon enough became an addiction, a career, a full time job.
Finding money, scoring enough to satisfy my every waking need.
Where it soon will loose it's appeal.
But the hunger will grow stronger, the lust will grow deeper and pain became overwhelming as every muscle in my body ached when you are not around me.
I want to feel you inside out, then pay you to leave.
But you are deep in my mind, you've become my only god.
I know I can't control you, but I can use you.
Again, and again and again.
I wish I could leave you in the dirt to die and not have to abuse you again, and again and again.
But I'm your scumbag, I'm your repeat and you know you'll always have me.
I want to bleed for you, I need you more than words can say.
I wish I could you and leave you, but I know that will not happen.
I'm only happy when I can feel you.
And that's the only time I feel alive.
I find myself getting so close to death and if I can't control myself, I'm better off dead.
And there's I can see worth fighting for without you.
I fight this battle all alone, my tear freeze in the cold.
My heart stopped beating and only starts again when you're near.
