When the Needle Drops

ehhh it's from the top of my head, enjoy

When the Needle drops/
all of my addiction will too/
cause I won't have your toxins/
to misjudge or misconstrue/
yea the way that it felt, when it was in my veins/
made me feel so amazing/
but now I withdraw in pain/
it was easy to take you, to use you as mines/
when I let you go baby, all illusions went dry/
it's so painful, so hurtful, so real and so true/
cause it hurts when I'm near you/
and when we're apart too/

Her drug is bad/
I still hear echos say/
giving all of my self/
spending all of my day/
trying to stay in a dream state/
trying to reload this high/
giving dream where we take off/
to leave all this behind/

You can't fix a person/
any more than you can erase time/
but you can waste a persons life/
like you waste your own time/

and I guess I wasted mines/
that faithful day when I tried you/
took me way beyond the stars/
beat the cow across the moon/

give me freedom from you/
I want that freedom/
I wish to go back to when I knew you from a far/
I didn't care who you'd speak to or where you are/
where you were rather I mean/
but now it's the struggle for me to get clean/
clean from toxins on my crops/
that is why the needle dropped/

Wow. This is amazing, Jordy. Another one added to my favorite pieces from you lol. You most definately can't fix a person, but in the same light, you shouldn't want to. To truly love is to love unconditionally. The desire to alter one's character contradicts the whole concept of unconditional love, you know? To regret it further contradicts. Is it safe to say that this piece suggests you never really loved her, but moreso that feeling of intoxication she provided? That "high" she had you on? Just food for thought I guess. I'm totally rambling lol.
