Addict

She tries to hide her addiction
When prying eyes are near
But she can't help it when she needs to sniff
Those snowy powdered tears

She tries to mask the pain
With make-up and alcohol
But all she succeeds in doing
Is making her stumble and fall

She doesn't know the exit
She can't find her way out
She can't let go
But she can't hang on

There's no future
There's no past
She's got nowhere to run
But she can't stand still

But there's the question in her eyes
The plea for help
There's the dying in her heart
She can't do it herself

It's an addiction
