The Shackles of Sobriety - Narcotic Wasteland

You live in fear

But it feels so good you just don’t care

Afraid to face the day with a normal state of mind

You cannot function in reality without being intoxicated

Then you get to that place where you become so frustrated

Too wasted to function

Dependent on your drug of choice

You must break the Shackles of sobriety

Searching for that fine line between brilliance and intoxication

Forever drowning in those bottles

You are suffocating but think you’re so alive

You fear sobriety

Once a new sensation

Now a total binge

Loving that twisted feeling

Getting drunk is so appealing

To the point of spitting verbal venom in disgust

When was the last time you spent a day without getting high?

Do you remember what it’s like?

You feel you cannot express yourself without chopping lines

Now it’s just a part of the daily grind

Too wasted to function

Dependent on your drug of choice

You must break the Shackles of sobriety

Searching for that fine line between brilliance and intoxication

Forever drowning in those bottles

You are suffocating but think you’re so alive

You fear sobriety
