"Dear God"

Quick Fix…

You stick a vein, light a flame

I blow a line, bump in time

Around and around and around we go

Time keeps ticking, days starting spinning

Everything becomes a blur in my head

You want to touch, catch a feel

I give a show, what a crime

Around and around and around we go

Here we’re tweaking, brains start freaking

Everything becomes a blur in my head

I wandered through the wilderness

And somewhere along the way

I lost who I was

You said you’d show the way

There I fought with my emptiness

I knew that I should never stay

I knew where I was

It was just for one day

Dear God, won’t you help me

Give me the strength to be pure

I’ve seen too much here in this hell

Help me to be clean

Dear God, can’t you save me

Help me not to bite this lure

I need my soul it’s not for sale

Help me to be clean

I won’t trade my soul

Or my sanity

For your quick fix

I gave in and dissolved away

Into a murky dried stain

I saw myself then

Terrified of me there

I told myself to run away

My world faded with the rain

I heard myself then

Just screaming to care

Dear God, won’t you help me

Give me the strength to be pure

I’ve seen too much here in this hell

Help me to be clean

Dear God, can’t you save me

Help me not to bite this lure

I need my soul it’s not for sale

Help me to be clean
