Need for needles

Most people never fear the pharmacy

But it’s where the needles come into play

I’m so addicted to getting it right

Since they took my brother away

He was a hundred days sober

My brother had finally gotten clean

Now his life is over

I can’t blame anyone but me

Because I was there when the sky fell

I was there when his life changed

⁰”† the only one who knows how he felt

And all he knows is I never stayed

So I’m sorry that I’m not ok with this

But I already love the sting of the knife

The only reason that I do this

Is because the needle makes me feel alright 

Thanks to you I want to do what he did 

And finally get it right

You helped me feel what he felt 

So I’m letting the needle end my life
