lyrics

Passageway to pipes and pills, open up my mind
White cancer growing faster after every single time
I'm not addicted, thoughts conflict subconsciously at will
Snorting shit, the needle drips, my cravings unfulfilled

Until I reach the heavens I must complicate this hell
Crash and burn but never learn, I can't shake off this spell
No time for tears or sweet denial, just crank my system higher
Nothing like speeding when your excesses have expired

Canker sores and chiseled features, comedown at its end
My methods are in vein as I indulge myself again
Blistering and crystallized, withered from decay
For anything I ever was I've pissed it all away

Nice guys may always finish last
But it really doesn't matter when I'm spun off my ass
I think I'll let the drugs do the talking again

I'm not a slave, I'm in control
It's just a phase, it's all I know
Don't leave me now, you're all that's left
These drugs are losing their effect
Farewell to those no longer here
So out of hope, so full of fear
Once more before I give it up
No high will ever be enough
(REPEAT)

Nice guys may always finish last
But it really doesn't matter when I'm spun off my ass
I think I'll let the drugs do the talking again

Cancer is consuming my insides
But I've got my jurisdictions and I've swallowed my pride
You've always been there, my imaginary friend
