Overdose
Addiction's Embrace: ONE OUTTA TEN's Overdose Chronicles
Lyrics
You're dangerous, the way a handsome man usually is
You are enticing and risky, like a charming man often is.
Well you've got me in a corner and I've been warned
I feel cornered by you, and I've been cautioned about your behavior.
That you got a bag of usual tricks
You possess a repertoire of common manipulative tactics.
And I'm anxious, the way a timid little boy can be
I feel uneasy, similar to how a timid boy might feel.
I've got no money to my name but the product on my brain
I have no money, but my thoughts are consumed by desires.
And I'll do anything I can just to get it
I am willing to do anything to satisfy my desires.
Well I don't care what it takes
I am indifferent to the consequences; I am determined to achieve my goal.
No I don't care what you make
Regardless of the effort required, I am not concerned.
No I don't care what it costs
The cost involved does not matter to me.
No I don't care
I am apathetic about the consequences.
And I'm stranded, all alone on an afternoon
I find myself isolated in the afternoon.
Well the nights are getting cold I got some warmth to hold
As the nights get colder, I seek warmth to comfort me.
And I locked myself in the bathroom
I lock myself in the bathroom, possibly to cope with internal struggles.
The spoon is white hot, and it's working through my bloodstream
A reference to drug use with a hot spoon affecting the bloodstream.
But I need it and I want it, yeah I need it and I want it
Expressing a strong desire for the substance despite its negative effects.
Don't you dare call me a fiend, no
Rejecting the label of being a "fiend" despite the dependency.
But I don't care what it takes
I remain unconcerned about the efforts required to fulfill my desires.
No I don't care what you make
The nature of what is achieved does not matter to me.
No I don't care what it costs
The cost associated with my actions is of no consequence.
No I don't care what I lost
Losses incurred due to my actions do not affect me.
I don't care
I am indifferent.
I don't care
-I don't care
-I don't care anymore
I have reached a point of apathy.
