Seems to set the entire world on fire

Vision blurs, heart rate rises

It gets difficult to breathe

Difficult to do much of anything

All that there is is that need

That painful desire burning through

It's deep in your blood, inescapable

It would be so easy to give in

To finally make this hell cease

And allow sweet hot relief in

But that shouldn't be the solution

It can't be

This addiction has taken ahold of you

Refuses to ever let go

It holds you captive

Roasting you over a flame 

That burns you all the way through

But there's a chance at a break

If only you'd just give in

Then the addiction will retreat

If only to hide just barely out of sight

But you can't give in

Can you?

It's wrong.. Illegal, immoral...

And seemingly the only option 

The continuous fight pulls apart your heart

Wanting to do the right thing

Wanting to fight the inner demons

But that want is up against

A terrifying and intimidating need

A need that is consuming everything in it's path

What the hell is there to do?

Can you face your biggest fear?

Face so much pain 

In the hopes that addiction will disappear 

Time will only tell

On how that fight will turn out
