Shadows of Addiction Lyrics

It started with a pill just to ease the pain

Benzos and opioids running through the veins

Then came heroin dark as night

A quick escape but it took the light

It starts so slow just a little more

But soon you're trapped behind a locked door

Cocaine crack pulling you down

Till all you see is the devil's crown

Shadows of addiction stealing your soul

A fight to survive but losing control

It's a battle inside so hard to win

But you're stronger than the demons within

Loved ones crying don't recognize the face

Of the person lost in that endless chase

For one more hit of that sweet relief

But all it brings is sorrow and grief

The lies you tell to cover the shame

Marijuana's grip it's part of the game

Hallucinogens twist the mind's own view

But there's a way out it starts with you

Shadows of addiction haunting the mind

A fight to escape the chains that bind

It's a battle inside so hard to win

But you're stronger than the demons within

The lies you tell to cover the shame

Marijuana's grip it's part of the game

Hallucinogens twist the mind's own view

But there's a way out it starts with you

Amphetamines speed burning fast and wild

Alcohol's grip it's got you beguiled

The damage done it's clear to see

But there's hope in love and recovery

One day at a time you'll find the way

With loved ones beside you you'll see the day

When the shadows fade and light returns

In the warmth of hope your spirit burns

Shadows of addiction tearing you apart

A fight to reclaim what's left of your heart

It's a battle inside so hard to win

But you're stronger than the demons within

Now you stand tall the fight not done

But each day sober is a victory won

For those still lost you're living proof

That with love and help you can break the noose

So take the chance don't give in to fear

The help you need is always near

And with every step you'll feel the rise

From the shadows of addiction to clear blue skies

Shadows of addiction left in the past

A fight that's been won you're free at last

It's a battle inside so hard to win

But you're stronger now than you've ever been

So hold on tight to the ones you love

With their strength and faith from above

You'll find the peace you've longed to see

And live a life that's truly free
