Goodbye

Good-bye 1974 (Seattle)



I destroy homes,tear families apart,
take your children and thats just the start.
Im more costly than diamonds
 more costly than gold ..
the sorrow i bring is a sight to behold.
I live with the rich,
i live with the poor
I live down the street
and maybe next door
My power is awesome..
just try me and see,
but just remember you may never break free
When i possess you you'll cheat and you'll lie
you'll do what you have to just to get high
I'll ravish your body i'll control your mind.
i'll own you completely
your soul will be mine
I'll take everything from you
your looks and your pride
but ill always be with u right by your side
I can bring you more misery than words can tell
come take my hand and i'll lead you to  HELL!!!!

Good-bye

I had a real struggle with drugs for many years and I was blinded by it. I couldn't see what was important, my children! My family, myself. I lost everything because of it. Never again!!! more…
