Narcotic Avenue

Waking up to another day, my one-track mind
I've got to have it, I gotta feed, where will I find
Medication, I need sedation, something for the pain
I gotta get me what I want or I'll go inside

Fight for survival
Death on arrival

I tried to quit, I know it's wrong and it's killing me
Maybe next week, I'll give it a try, we'll just wait and see in that one
My heart is racing, I can't stop pacing but I know what to do
Just take a walk, down the block, narcotic avenue

Feel the rush inside your veins, no concern of what remains
You cannot stop, don't blame me, I'll be the last thing you see

I'm coming down, another round, time to up the dose
But now you're dead, the headline read: FATAL OVERDOSE
