You Took The Color From My Soul

Addicts keep hurting until they stop hurting

You tell me you’re fine But you’re really falling apart You’re trailing a fragile line You’re good at that, though, lying You made me believe everything I don’t know how I missed it Am I the fool, or am I the lion? Every time you hurt me It’s another scar on which you’ve burdened me I keep taking the blows Because that’s unconditional love It’s the only thing I know

I’m holding myself together with glue I’m past depression; I’m past the blues I can’t feel anymore; everything seems used There’s no excitement; the new is just old news

You took the color from my soul Now every day is a burden; a heavy toll

I try to move forward, but I keep coming back You do something to me, like an addict for smack Darkness is my only friend Now, I’m only seeking an end
