Our Addictions


Its not about cravings
Or tweaking
Or crazy sweats and uncontrollable shaking…
It's about thinking
Searching for… justification
Validation
About giving into temptation
Without moderation
It's in our head
Deep inside our mind
We let ourselves be led
End up entwined
It's the feeling that we're grown
Then losin control
But tryin to keep it from being known
Shh
It's a secret
WTF
We need to speak it
They won't understand
They'll set limits
Try to demand
Suppress our spirits
Then they'll scold and reprimand
It's not about the drink
The pills
The high or the consequential sink…
Those are merely manifestations
Of our addictions
The acclimation
Of the affliction
Set at the core of our infatuation
The release of inhibitions
Leading to further elations
Which becomes our damnation.
