Downward Spiral

By HiImFromJupiter

I've smoked crack many times before
fell flat on my back and still wanted more
I don't know why I am this way
"Just quit" yeah I'll try, but not today
The dope must be filling some hole inside me
but I am unwilling I don't want to see
This cyce keeps spinning round and round
my wear and tear showing I'm losing ground
But still I refuse to acknowledge the fact
This battle I'll lose if I don't turn back
I've lost it all thrown it away
A long way to fall a high price to pay
What will it take to make me see
There's too much at stake I'm losing me
Will I see the light before it's too late
As I reach for my pipe change will just have to wait.
