A Journey into my past, it deals with my alcohol troubles.
I am you’re devil, I am your downfall.
I am the reason you so many times you sat and bawled.
I bring out you’re demons, you’re gate, and you’re selfish side.
I’m the reason so many times you should have fucking died.
I ate at you’re soul, hurt you’re loved ones and mixed you’re mind.
Kept you in knots and wouldn’t let you unwind.
Filled you with lies, made you a shell of a man.
But that’s what I was there for, that was my whole plan.
I scratched your emotions, killed your humanity.
Rest assured I tried my best to play with you’re sanity.
Every time you held me high and put your lips on mine.
Drank in my insides and believed in al the lines.
I had you, you no longer belonged to yourself.
I took you’re heart and boxed it up on a shelf.
I showed you what life was like swimming in agony.
I lead you to believe you were nothing and made you love me.
I even had the power to bring you to you’re knees.
I made you suffer, I made your insides bleed.
Grayed you’re face and tore apart your belief in good.
Made you see things my way, while I hid behind a mental hood.
I was you’re confusion, a destructive force on you’re senses.
I made you say and do things that later required so many to build up fences.
Walls, barriers, everyone bricked up their hearts from you.
Damn near lost even the one that gave birth to you.
I was your shackle, the weight on your shoulders.
The whole reason you felt nothing and your insides grew so cold.
I was your angel of death, I gigantic black cloak.
I used to love when you breathed me in so deep you’d choke.
The only joy I would have loved best.
Is if I poisoned your body and you’re family laid you to rest.
But you gave me up, I thought we were attached.
Now all I can do is what for the next weak person that’s a match.
