Don't go near it
Didn't you hear me?
Don't go near it.
It'll control you.
Keep you how it wants,
So when you're needed, you're right.
And when you're not wanted,
When your use has gone,
It'll discard you and leave you alone.
It's a drug.
The worst drug.
Your addition will drive you insane.
It'll leave you itching for more,
Begging for more.
So don't go near it.
Oh it seems sweet,
A fairytale like dream.
But when the reality sets in you're done.
Because it kills you, slowly.
By attaching itself to you,
And gnawing at your flesh.
It devours you,
From the inside out.
And all that remains is your shell.
A shell of who you were before.
So don't go near it,
I beg you.
It's a death wish, a sure suicide.
You're dead where you stand,
If you go near it.
Don't look too hard,
It'll notice.
It'll surely lure you in.
With sugar coated lies,
And stories so wonderful
That you'll succumb to it.
So you'll surrender to it,
Body and soul.
But don't.
Don't go near it.
I'm telling you,
Don't go near it.
