Addiction

Does it matter what it is that we are addicted to?
Food, drugs, alcohol and medication too.
It doesn't matter what you are addicted to.
These drugs are used to dull the heartache, boredom and pain.
How do we fight our addictions, it's so hard.
It's so hard because sometimes it's easier to play our addicted selves.
It is usually harder to do the right hting, but what if we find a new addiction that lessons our pain?
A good addiction, could there be such a thing?
Could there be good addictions such as love, relaxation and play?
Can these things take the bad addictions away?
Take them, take them far, far away.
Take the bad ones, bad ones, the bad addictions away.
Make me, make me deal with the pain.
Deal with the pain, so I can function in a good way.
Love, relaxation and play all day.
Addiction, addiction please go away.
