Its called Junkie

Veins ache so bad
Like they always have
My time is bleak
Don't think I can take
Another week

Putting things into your body
Destroying your life
The light is near and you will see it soon
May love be with my friend
For when you wake up
It'll be the end again

You shoot your junk like popping skittles
Once you felt so little
Now thats over your a big man
But you better stop all your heroin.

That really hits close to home. The only difference is that my drug of choice was energy drinks. An energy drink is like drinking a can of amphetamines. I haven't bought and drank one of those, in 10 days. I was averaging one big can, a day, which is actually two servings. On to the next 10 days. It takes 20 days to form a habit, and I want to form a healthy habit of getting through my day, without one of those drinks.
