It's an addiction
a high to make you feel
it's an assumption
of what's really real
it's become an affliction
an insult or betrayal
it's all you have left
but you'll only ever fail
it's a placebo
making you believe
it's a medication
helping you to live
it's a cure
for what kills your heart
it's an escape
pulling your life apart
it's the truth you're hiding
the lies you're lieing
it's the heart you're breaking
and the life you're taking
its the world you'll never know
with a side you'll never show
its unbeknown to you
so the unknowing are through
unspoken among your mind
yet you still fight to find
what will stop it all
to find the final step when you fall
what will end the madness
when will you find the right perception
something we all look for
but will never be in our possession
