Hi I'm a Junkie

I'll admit

I walked gingerly thorough the gateway...

Got high of his aroma, one hit and I knew he was going places

And I wanted to follow

Kept getting chocolate wasted

Every time inhaling a little longer

Holding these feelings trapped in my lungs

Every time a little longer....it felt so good....

Eventually I needed more

So I sprinkled the powder on the table

And snorted my way to ecstasy

I floated

In the clouds as the powder lined my noes

He had me wide open

Walking around in a constant state of euphoria

And then one day a hundred and fifty characters

No longer afforded me the bump I so desperately yearned for

My digital love affair was over

I knew I would have to take drastic measures

So I rolled up my sleeve

Tied myself off

Put the needle in my arm

I drifted into the imaginary world

Where him and I dance in the moonlight

Shared kisses over brunch

And never thought about goodbyes

But I was never satisfied

More demand and no supply

Nightmares about the inevitable

Waking up in cold sweats

But if I could just get one more hit......

I'm going through withdrawal

Vomiting my feelings

Insomnia holding these memories hostage in my brain

I can't stop the shakes

If I only I had turned my head,

"Hey this is Lance" is all I heard instead.

This is a helluva drug

Hi my name is Chantell and I'm an addict
