Cara Droga

Dear drug
I'm finally finding the courage to write to you
I want to tell you all the hate I have for you, and you know why
You defeated me, and like a coward, I scratch my soul every day
From every trip with you, I come back weaker and more useless

And you enjoy it
You smile, satisfied, always offering company
In moments when colors break and my mind flies away
You take advantage of a moment when I can't handle my loneliness
And fill my mind with those emptinesses you manage to sell me

I want to curse you
I gather the strength to scream at you
The anger that I can only give you
With my soul in pieces now
I want you to keep my contempt
As my only inheritance

Only the anger I can give you
With my soul in pieces now
I want you to keep my contempt
As my only inheritance

Dear drug
I hate you for the people who will still kill for you
For the dreams you've stolen, the nature you've corrupted while mocking me
Disguised as a companion who offers herself naked just for love
In a bed of artificial pleasures, you wear me out and then leave

I want to curse you
I want you to keep my contempt
As my only inheritance
