I Kicked My Addiction Lyrics

We smoked those Marb blacks fast

Down to the filter by the lake

Cause it's the only shot you got to get a good buzz

Around here anyway

And I've never seen a man

As tough as him cry like that before

Five minutes after we met

When we go home, we won't be different at all

People don't change, but maybe they get better

Hey kid, you know

You've got a half-way decent voice

Will you write a song, for my daughter

Called I kicked my addiction?

I kicked my sorry ass to the curb

Stayed a while, and waited for my life

But it doesn't come, no

Cause you got to come to life first, and stay a while

Just to be free again, to be clean again

And she said that if these walls could talk

They'd have a lot to say

But I think they'd only cry out for the help

For those whose help just never came

Cause a junkie ain't a junkie

But a mother, father, sister, brother, friend

One taught me how to heal a bird

Another taught me the end is not the end

If you kick your addiction

If you kick your sorry ass to the curb

Stay a while, and wait for your life

It'll never come, no

Cause you got to come, to life first and stay a while

Just to be free again, to be clean again

When we go home, we won't be different at all

People don't change, but maybe they get better

Hey kid, you know

You've got a half-way decent voice

Will you write a song, for my daughter

Called I kicked my addiction

I kicked my sorry ass to the curb

Stayed a while, and waited for my life

But it doesn't come, no

Cause you got to come to life first, and stay a while

Just to be free again

And stay a while

Just to be clean again

To be clean again

When we go home, we won't be different at all

Will you write a song, for my daughter
