Intervention

Folder: 
Triumvirate

How do you manage to cage yourself inside of that monster you've become?
How do you pretend everything is fine with a brain so disconnected and so numb?
Is your reality really that bad, that you find the need to escape it multiple times a day?
I've watched a drastic and disturbing change in you, and I don't even know what to say
You've been polluting your body for so long, I think it's time you should come clean
A part of me just wants to laugh at you for how idiotic you are, but I care too much so I must intervene
You think the sun shines just for you when you're on top of the clouds, but sober eyes only see your many shades of gray
You've lost all control of your own actions, so now things must be this way

You've lost all your self-respect, your pride, and your dignity
You've made me so ashamed, and you're just too blind to even see
You've left me with no other choice, this is how it has to be
You need to make up your mind...it's either the drugs...or me

How do you manage to live behind that ugly mask you wear to cover all the lies?
How do you pretend everything is okay while hiding behind that disgusting and despicable disguise?
Are your dreams really that bad, that you choose to replace them with nightmares every night instead?
I've witnessed a complete 180 degree transformation in you, and I've already spoke all the words of concern that could possibly be said
You've been forsaking your soul for so long, I think it's time you should rekindle the flame
A piece of me just wishes that none of this was real, that we could just hit the reset button on this grotesque game
You think the stars only shine for you when you're on top of the world, but candid eyes only see you lost in a deep sea of black
I'm so scared and shocked of what you've become, I just want the old you back

You've lost all your self-respect, your pride, and your dignity
You've made me so ashamed, and you're just too blind to even see
You've left me with no other choice, this is how it has to be
You need to make up your mind...it's either the drugs...or me

...You've left yourself with no other choice, this is your new reality
Whenever you see the drugs, you won't be seeing any of me...
