The Bad Side Of Life (His Addiction)

by Lady Nik   Oct 27, 2007


I am the bad side of life
I'll tear you up from the inside.
I am the swelling in your throat.
I am the last pill leading to your overdose.
I am the pain that paralyzes your spine.
I am the insane thoughts corrupting your mind.
I am the monster in every nightmare.
I am the scream behind every scare.
I am the bad side of life.
I am the disease that will never die.
I am the story behind every tear.
I am every whisper you don't want to hear.
I am the ghost that stalks you at night.
I'm all the insults that have made you cry.
I am the break in your heart.
I am the scars on your arm.
I am the bad side of life.
I am the mistake behind every lie.
I'm all the secrets you can't keep.
I'm all the worries that won't let you sleep.
I'm the reason for all your sadness.
I'm the snap in your brain that caused your madness.
I am the dawn of depression.
But for now I'm just his addiction.
