The Drug

I've seen the sun go down
Several times today
It's not a darkness that slithers at night
It's a darkness that shows up even in light

It's the truth told by a liar
It's cold as ice but it's on fire
it's a sin that leads to damnation
It's what you call an eternal temptation

You can fight it forever
But the pain never ceases
It'll put things in order
But leave you in pieces

You'll say you have control
But you're wearing a mask
No one knows who you are
And they'll never ask

Trust me, you'll fight it forever
The pain never ceases
You'll say your life is in order
But you'll be torn into pieces
