Its Grip Wont Fade

Im in here trying
you're out there crying
wiping wet eyes on society.
Saying heroin brought you
to your knees.
I know the option
I haven't forgotten
how this drug is more than need.
Blotting out the brain,
need turns into pain.
While the drug keeps calling harder
the sickness always lasting longer
than the release it finally brings.
And you've been waiting
for its grip to start fading,
but I promise you,
it never leaves.
