The Cycle

I just don't get it
I can't seem to break it's grip
Even though I know
I'm killing myself with every sip

It began as a comfort
But now it's in control
It's become my only friend
As I travel this lonely road

What have you done for me?
Besides cause me hurt and pain
You've destroyed who I am
Because of your sick little game

I can't believe I trusted you
That I believed your lies
You've torn my life apart
And I just want to die

Something was missing
Until you came along
You filled my emptiness
And told me to be strong

Now you've become my poison
I'm rotten to the core
Are you happy
That I can't deal with life anymore?

It's a cycle that won't end
I've come to realize this
I'm content and ready
To embrace death's kiss
