-This is one of my favorite songs and I feel like what I hear is exactly what I would write if I were writing a song about withdrawal, therefore, I'm putting down the lyrics as I hear them, pertaining to opiate withdrawal:
I don't remember the first time
but I think I survived
Probably better not to try to wake up
Cuz it feeds again
Keeps it alive
There are specific things
That I have to do
Day to day, just to keep it at bay
You wouldn't believe if you knew
(oh, no, this isn't real)
Here's a little secret
Here's the best part
This is gonna take me,
right back to the start
If I can cure it
If its set in mind
Wait until it settles
Come down a second time
I don't remember the first time
but I think I survived
Probably better not to try to wake up
Cuz it feeds again
Keeps it alive
(oh, no, this isn't real)
Here's a little secret
Here's the best part
This is gonna take me
Right back to the start
If I can cure it
If its set in mind
Wait until it settles
Come down a second time
I can feel it loom
Up into my head
It is in the room
I'm panicking in bed
I feel it coming on
Taking overview
Oh please, not tonight
There's nothing I can do
This is bigger than me
This is in my fear
This is pitiful
I just disappear
Swears falling from me
Swallowed up inside
Sell my senses if it
Would make this subside
I can barely handle
I can pass the time
Staring through the curtains
Up into the sky
Where there is no depth perception
Keep me occupied
Self-deception
Nobody recognizes
It doesn't have a name
My brother is infected
He's acting just the same
Screaming like a siren
Up and down the halls
He just wants to stop it
He wants to end it all
I am just a child
I am nothing more
Than the basic functions
I am running from
I could run a mile
My distortion
Everything is
Disproportioned
