Words Of A Silent Killer

23 Sep 2017

You think you have control
But I am the one who has it 
You do not, not in the least bit
I make you cry because if I don't then people wonder why
You thought you were loved but now you're lost
I took over you mind and that was your cost 
You are so blind; people have told you, but you didn't listen
Now I laugh because your eyes don't even glisten
I am the reason you cannot sleep 
I am pain that hurts so bad
But you are in too deep 
You never knew what you had you looked to see 
Now you're the person you're not wanting to be
I am the reason why you can't love 
Because you don't know what's up above 
You love me and no one else 
I took your life away 
On that very first day
I still have control; I am your confession 
You sold your soul to me 
Which led you into deep depression 
You'll never be free 
Because you belong to me 
I long for you to relapse
As I push you down until you collapse
I am the reason you can't look people in the eyes
Because I make you wear a disguise
I keep you locked in a cage
Which causes you to have a deep rage
I made you feel unaware, and I really don't care
I am all you fear 
Which causes you all these tears
I am always right, so you think 
I make you so scared you cannot blink 
I took away all your trust 
Made it so you could only lust
I don't care how you feel 
Because, between you and me, you will never heal
I tear you down inside, which all you can do is deny
I knew you would come to me on the day of your birth 
I took all you were ever worth
You think you are okay, but I have something to say
You thought you were bold 
Now you're sitting here crying, wondering why I am so cold
I took you away from all your youth 
I also made it so you could never tell the truth
I am the reason that causes you death 
I sneak upon and take your last breath 
Can you guess who I am?
I am Crystal Meth
