You’re the substance I overinjected
You’re the cigarette’s poison inside
Tired from pulling my lips off your bottle
While the addict in me was alive
Bring me down
(down was how you found me)
And I can say that I’m finally free
Of the sickness in me
When I damaged myself for you
No longer the same
As the thing I became
Well I damaged myself for you
Your perfectly pale reflection
In the mirror of who I’d become
But the cross-fade is finally over
And my teeth are removed from your gun
And I can say that I’m finally free
Of the sickness in me
When I damaged myself for you
No longer the same
As the thing I became
Well I damaged myself for you
It took me so long
To let go of the wrong I knew
The scene of the crime
Was your hell but its time is through
The chains are erased and I turn from the place
Where I punished myself like a hostage enslaved by you
