Addiction 1993
See the one who walks alone,
no dignity to bare.
Detailed structure of defenselessness
with only glacial stares.
Omit this one laden by disease,
a decrepit gem in life's dust
not caring who's eye sees.
Disable what is left of him,
through your parody.
Confine him to delusions,
for all eternity.
See the one who walks alone,
in a labrynth oppressed by booze.
This path he lives religeously,
became the only one to choose.
