Addict

I feel like an addict deprived of a fix.

Oh, it's time again.

I'm fighting the tears that just aren't coming

I consider the loss, but I feel nothing.

I'd rather be anywhere that wasn't here

Too many memories in your absence, I fear.

I'd rather be fucked up than thinking of you.

I can't stand the let down when your plans fall through.

I even looked for you today..

But I saw I was alone, and I looked away.

I knew you wouldn't be there but it didn't matter.

I needed the flash of hope before my faith shattered.

So thank you for giving what I didn't need:

Another addiction and a hateful seed.

But somehow I know despite my efforts

I'll keep it here with me forever.
