Confessions of a Recovering Addict

I am gonna let you guys guess on what this one is about.

Confessions of a Recovering Addict

(Verse one)
THE STORY of a boy
FIGHTING HIS addiction
ADDICTION TO DRUGS CALLED INFATUATION

A LONER a beggar
A CHILD a rebel
HE WANTS IN BUT PUSHES EVERYONE ELSE OUT

RESISTS IT, all of it
A COLD ONE, a blunt hit
AND NOTHING WOULD MAKE HIM DO WHAT HE WANTS NOT

BUT THIS ONE, new to him
NEVER SAW, it coming
COMPLETELY UNPREPARED AND SO CAUGHT OFF GUARD

I thought I could resist it all
But my knowledge was so limited

(Chorus)
NOW I
Must let it die
With no goodbye
Must let it die

WITH NO GOODBYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


(Verse two)
THEN SHE COMES, and it comes
HE SEES HER, so different
HE’S WILLING TO GIVE UP HIS DOUBTS AND HIS FEARS

HE MEETS HER, he tries it
SHE RESPONDS, he likes it
AND ALL OF A SUDDEN HE’S SUNK AND HE’S HOOKED

IN HIS MIND, he loves her
AND IT GROWS, can’t have her
SO HE KEEPS THE MISERY AND THE SORROW

CONFESSER, then rehab
HE’S OFF IT, still there though
HE WANTS FORGIVNESS BUT HE CAN’T FIND THE WORDS

And as I look back on it now
I know I’m still recovering

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Deeper and deeper and deeper through hell
I punish myself for how deep I fell
Deeper and deeper and deeper through hell
Guilty for knowing that I could go deeper

Deeper and deeper and deeper through hell
I punish myself for how deep I fell
Deeper and deeper and deeper through hell
Guilty for knowing that I could go deeper

DEEPER AND DEEPER AND DEEPER THROUGH HELL
I PUNISH MYSELF FOR HOW DEEP I FELL
DEEPER AND DEEPER AND DEEPER THROUGH HELL
GUILTY FOR KNOWING I COULD HAVE GONE DEEPER

DEEPER AND DEEPER AND DEEPER THROUGH HELL
I PUNISH MYSELF FOR HOW DEEP I FELL
DEEPER AND DEEPER AND DEEPER THROUGH HELL
GUILTY FOR KNOWING I COULD HAVE GONE DEEPER

(Post chorus)

I never want this inside me again
Cause if it’s there, I’ll OD and be dead
I may know nothing from now to the end
BUT
I choose life over infatuation

I can't really pinpoint what style you are going for but, it seems to me like this would be an instant radio rock hit, I can honestly hear somebody like good charlette doing this...

Sorry both of my reviews have been harsh, I'm just being honest, nothing against you

You need to hear the music. The song is a lot longer(and faster) than any radio would put out. It is basicly about an event that happened on my life. Whatever, I would take good charlotte over Motley Crue. Better honest than sugar coated though.

I thought the flow was great. And there was a lot of energy to it. It's open -ended as far as interpretation , I think, so a broader audience might find it appealing. Liekit was speaking to their situation what ever that might be. I loved the phrasing. And has many opportunites to build to a noisy hard rockin' theme.
Really cool. Thanks for sharing.
