I breathe in; I let it all sink in; I close my eyes; it feels good.

378 days sort of clean. I yearn for your laughter,

I want you thereafter. 

No, I need you.

Like a drug addict, I have become. Back the feelings come. 

Learning where you walk So I can see you.

I hear your laughter; I want to see with who

It's her, it should be with me

I wish I never did it, that it never changed; I wish I were still with you

An addict destroys his life just so that he can have drugs. I would ruin my life so that I can have you. 

Your birthday month, it all came flooding back

Something I was trying to push out of my mind. 

The memories, just me and you intertwined.

Fighting over the stupidest reason, 

you left me for what you called treason.

Listening to music, I would crumble. 

Alone staring, wondering when it will all end.

Love is when you can't live without someone; an addict can't live without drugs. I can't live without you; I loved you; I mean, I still do 

You started saying such horrible things. It desecrated me 

Never will I ever be the same.

You wish things never become the way they were. I want the contrary. I miss you. Please come back.

I'm scared now it's because of you. I'm never going to be the same. I can't get over you. A few months later, A talk, then another. Oh, don't bother.

I do not want to be with you, don't you get it, Leave.

Again and again, I will try to make things right with you because you telling me to leave is something I won't believe.

An addict tries and tries even though around the corner is his demise.

You know it's not fair, But you will never care

30 new drugs, but never like you 

I miss you, I love you, I hate you 

I want you, no; I need you 

Like a drug addict, I have become

I've been 28 days clean, clean 

With no convene 

28 days without a word 

But you're always on my mind; I breathe in, and the memories flow back in 

I'm sweating. You're not here. My head starts to spin. 

I won't be able to make it.

I need you. I need more.

Why can't it be like it was before 

A drug addict always has an end

For me, that's still at pend
