Chosen Path

I've given up on digging you out of the rabbit hole
You chose the path, you are at fault
I no longer admonish or exhort
Let natural selection take its fucking course

Mindlessly inject and consume
All the poisons that entice you
Use them as a crutch as you limp away from your issues

You're just an insect attracted to the light
A glowing bulb hanging above the next fix
But you can't face the day without a pill to take
Or focusing your brain on a bottle to drain
It's like you're following the sound of a siren in a stairwell

With self-restraint, I abstain from these foolish games
I've no desire to partake and inebriate
Why throw your life away, day after fucking day?
I'll watch you fade away with needles in your veins

This is the life that you've made for yourself
You chose the path, you are at fault
This is the life that you've made for yourself
You chose the path, you are at fault

You intoxicate until you cannot feel a thing
All senses dissipate into a wasted haze
Now feast your eyes upon what you alone have done
As your organs fail and your skin corrodes
I will stand above you as you decompose
Every hand that reached out, betrayed and pushed away
Fragile glimmers of hope shattered by your dependence

You're just an insect attracted to the light
Hanging above the next fix
Aimlessly following the sound of a siren in a stairwell

Zero tolerance for your dependence
Zero tolerance, fuck your chosen path
