songs about addiction/recovery



An' my belly is craving, I got shaking in my head
I feel like I'm dyin' an' I wish I were dead
If I lived till tomorrow it's gonna be a long time
For I'll reel and I'll fall and rise on codine
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time
An' it's real, an' it's real, one more time

Enslavement of Beauty - C17H19NO3 (H2O)



I beweep my foolish prudence, I beweep thy sick reluctancy
chaos disguised as nought, accusing acquaintance of sodomy
Sometimes I just stare blankly for hours
wondering how it could have been
interrupted only by the blur of sight from the tears I shed in between
C17-H19-NO3-H2O...
I crawl my way through morphine days
anodyne at least, in opiating grace
I knew it was killing me
but the apple seemed so sweet
and I still, sometimes, dream of thee...
I am the tranquil king, I mirror cupid in all these phrases
there's a sadness in our eyes, dancing stars and trancing faces
I am the faithless mainstream of poker puss mannequins to be
these days everybody smiles and all the cameras are circling me
In forvid energy... I still extol thy image to the sky (and beyond).
Thou art petite, thou art pristine...
(and) my superlatives are not just words
The humid energy (of passion) granted us the wings of hell
we are drifting aimlessly (on) our way to somewhere
C17-H19-NO3-H2O...
I crawl my way through morphine days
anodyne at least, in opiating grace
I knew it was killing me
but the apple seemed so sweet
and I still, sometimes, dream of thee...
I waive my attempts to smile, I waive my attempts to care
tinged with bizarre implicit violence
I mimic the expression they expect me to bear
I am the pretty, pretty sex machine, when we come is when we die
deceit is a pill for us to share, leaving an all time high...

IM SO TIRED. IM SO FED UP. IM SO BETRAYED. **** IT ALL

THIS IS SERIOUS. I'VE LIVED IT SINCE I WAS YOUNG

I just pray someone in this world hears my soul speaking.
I don't trust a soul anymore. i miss my Friends. I miss my Girl. But, I know out there there's an answer NOW IT'S TRULY DO OR DIE.
I'm doing what it takes to get it all together. Alcohol ain't killing my detox tears are falling my face remembering my dead homies. From drugs to bullets. I know they wouldn't want me ending up like this. White/Latin/Black I'm staying STRONG. ain't no more PAIN.

This one hits me harder than most….

Bryan Martin-Addiction

I′m a darkness, comes in any size
You can't hide me, they can see it in your eye's
Sinner or saint, I′ll leave you tellin' lies
But I'll be with you ′til the day you die
Hidin′ in the shadows down the street
Just waitin' for a chance for us to meet
Once I have you, I won′t let you go
Jesus can have your heart, but I'll take your soul
You can try to put me down, but again you′ll fail
This ain't my first rodeo, gonna put you through hell
As you lie in bed with the sweats and the shakes
I′ll be waitin' over here when your fever breaks
Make you steal from your mom
Make you steal from your dad
I'll make you sell everything you had
Forget about your kids
Forget about your wife
′Cause I′m the only thing that you need in life
I didn't come to you, you came to me
So I′m not the one to blame you see
Talk about all the things you change
When the morning comes one thing remains
You can hear the voices callin' down the hall
Ain′t nobody there 'cause you lost it all
Come next week you′ll be livin' in the street
Don't worry brother I got all you need
Well I come in many forms
Whiskey and pills
Cocaine, meth, whatever spins your wheels
I been bought and I been sold
When I′m in your system I take control
My name′s addiction
It's a powerful name
If you don′t believe me
Come and play my game
I took the best and watched 'em go insane
Just kicked back and watched ′em go up in flames
I'm a darkness comes in any size
You can′t hide me, they can see it in your eyes
Sinner or saint I'll leave you tellin' lies
But I′ll be with you ′til the day you die
