about

This is the first track I was able to record professionally with D.J. Martel. He also helped with the keys, mixing, and mastering.

This is a pretty personal song and was a little nervewracking to put out, but I hope people can relate to it and I hope it can help people understand the struggles of addiction.

lyrics

You sold me out again
I did it to myself again
I've got no hobbies
and no friends
No motivation
to keep living

I'm going through my phone
I'm hoping I did not delete my connect
Every second that it takes is one more second I should take to reflect
On myself

I broke the rules again
I hurt myselfagain
I'm in hole that's so deep
The only light that I see
Is from the the fire slowly suffocating inside of me

I'm going through my phone
hoping I did not delete my connect
Every second that it takes is one more second I should take to reflect
On myself

I'm an addict and it always gets the best of me
I'm a loser and it helps me lose a lot of sleep
Up a night rerunning past choices and memories
I don't understand how anyone could ever love me

I broke her heart again
I did not say sorry again
If you don't trust me, trust me I would understand
I watched my whole life fall apart in my own hands

I'm an addict and it always gets the best of me
I'm a loser and it helps me lose a lot of sleep
Up a night rerunning past choices and memories
I don't understand how anyone could ever love me

It's all my fault
I made the call
It's not too late to call it off

I'm an addict and it always gets the best of me
I'm a loser and it helps me lose a lot of sleep
Up a night rerunning past choices and memories
I don't understand how anyone could ever love me
