Text: Soilent Green. An Addict's Lover.
Her mother used to hit her
To an uncontrolled consumption
Of an absolute solution
Experience with drug abuse
Taking this drug of peace
Slowly taking its toll
Never question, love through addiction
Collecting this emptiness
Recollect a calm self centered guess
Every broken promise
To bleed the soul free
Faith is not the answer
A promise that must end
Left her standing to face her own way
Face to face
Thought you could
Never thought you would
Fall this steep
Overdose intentional
5 or 6 times
For reasons being to die
Broken out fight
Unable to focus
Late night on knees
Scraping scarred brush burns
A lethal move for ecstasy
Lying curled up in the corner of the bathroom
Hung over from the night before
A wrong signal for an intertwined love affair
Putting yourself in a disaster over a childish dare
Eyes opening to a smooth trail of blood on the floor
Leading to the trash can next to the door
You wanted to be intimate, he wanted to fuck
Skill of prostitution down the drain for one more dose
Indulge in the innocence of each other's addiction
Sitting next to your mate doing drug time
Vintage lust for a lost modern age
To an uncontrolled consumption
Of an absolute solution
Experience with drug abuse
Taking this drug of peace
Slowly taking its toll
Never question, love through addiction
Collecting this emptiness
Recollect a calm self centered guess
Every broken promise
To bleed the soul free
Faith is not the answer
A promise that must end
Left her standing to face her own way
Face to face
Thought you could
Never thought you would
Fall this steep
Overdose intentional
5 or 6 times
For reasons being to die
Broken out fight
Unable to focus
Late night on knees
Scraping scarred brush burns
A lethal move for ecstasy
Lying curled up in the corner of the bathroom
Hung over from the night before
A wrong signal for an intertwined love affair
Putting yourself in a disaster over a childish dare
Eyes opening to a smooth trail of blood on the floor
Leading to the trash can next to the door
You wanted to be intimate, he wanted to fuck
Skill of prostitution down the drain for one more dose
Indulge in the innocence of each other's addiction
Sitting next to your mate doing drug time
Vintage lust for a lost modern age
