The Big Empty

You used to love life
You used to live free
You used to be so true
But it all turned to deceit

You once had a heart of gold
You once made people smile
But you hardened your heart
And your virtue you defiled

You were once so full of life
But inside now's an empty hole
The meds became your idols
The addiction took it's toll

You try to fill the void inside
So you won't feel so odd
Fill it with the trinkets you buy
Now money's become your God

All of your decency you sold
For the price of your next fix
Anything to get you by
You fall for Satan's tricks

High on false happiness
Spinning out of control
Gold and money and drugs
The only price was your soul

The hole inside becomes a monster
It's hunger is never sated
Your life's purpose is to feed it
Or to keep it medicated

You forget everyone around you
Everyone you've ever known
All frosaken for your demon
And now you find yourself alone.

You once were so beautiful
Blessed with an angels grace
But now it's all begun to fade
And the pain is written on your face

Now all that was is gone
You're still left feeling hollow
Now you've left your legacy
So sad for those that follow
