addicted to escape

The pain, the anger, the suffering
The running, the hiding, the escape
Every day I try to find a new way
A way to dull the pain
Drugs alcohol that’s all I will do
I don’t cut myself
Neither should you
What I’m doing is wrong
But I need it to be right
Now I’ve been clean for 72 hours
And these are the hardest days of my life
Constantly thinking of what I can do
To just get away, just find a new escape
Now that I can think I hate myself even more
Are drugs the answer
No
And people told me before
You will get addicted, addicted to drugs
I said no and I still believe that to be true
I’m not addicted I would say
Then I thought about it one day
It’s not the drugs, not the alcohol and not the parties
I’m addicted to escape
