I light up one last time
press it to my lips
I know I'm alone today
and what I need right now
A splash of cold water
does me good to focus
On what I need to do
and what I need to become
I want to shed my skin
Put on a new mask
Start this thing over again
But your voice calls me back
Back to my old ways
Back to the old days
There's no place to hide away
no place to run
I have to face myself
one last time
my old demon
my old friend
Fill it up one more time
a nervous sip to my lips
Another ounce of courage
to give me some strength
I step out into the cold air
and pull my coat tighter
but inside I'm still numb
from the cold or the drug
You let me down before
You weren't there when I was
I always took the fall for you
I need to break this chain once and for all
