Infected with addiction
Stop it! Stop picking at your face!
Blood running down your cheek – such a damn disgrace.
Moving quickly from your face down to your arm –
Picking at the scabs – what could be the harm?

Infection – feel it pumping through your veins
Allowing meth to control your reins.
Do you think you’re in charge? Dope rules you now.
Struggling to break free, but you don’t know how.

Stick that needle deep into your arm
Feel it flowing smoothly – working like a charm.
Completely infecting you as it goes
From the tip of your head – down to your toes.
