That which kills us, makes us stronger
It's appalling,
When I can't help falling,
But I'm not free falling,
I'm tethered to it.
A parasite, a leech,
Within my reach,
And it won't let go,
No.
I don't want it to go anyway,
I haven't suffered this way,
In a long time,
I'm well past my prime.
It kills me everyday,
My vision turns gray.
But I feel stronger,
I need it to last longer.
A passer by walked up to the spot,
And reached out,
"Take my hand, I'll pull you away."
And I said, "Nay!"
I need this, I want to stay here.
It's my everything, the drug that you fear.
I know not where from it came.
But we are one, we are the same.
