Choke

Like drowning in a bog

Or smothered by the fog

On mountains of mist I tread

Clinging bitter taste

Buried amongst the waste

Dancing with the living dead

Forget about hope and love

Or of heaven up above

Nightmares live behind my eyes

Pray for no return

Hell at every turn

Memories disappear into the sky

So damn bitter and so sweet

Dark paradise lies at my feet

Urge and passion rages on

Chase the dragon into the dawn

Addicted to the roiling smoke

Afflicted by the burn

On which I choke

Deep in my dying soul

Things seem all aglow

Tripping along the outer void

No way back

This winding track

And all that I destroy

Broken down inside

But soaring oh so high

Things that matter start to fade

Far away I shove

All that I love

Warped life that I have made

So damn bitter and so sweet

Dark paradise lies at my feet

Urge and passion rages on

Chase the dragon into the dawn

Addicted to the roiling smoke

Afflicted by the burn

On which I choke

The hypnotic fruit hangs so ripe

Slow drag upon the pipe

The world turning gray

As the smoke carries me away

So damn bitter and so sweet

Dark paradise lies at my feet

Addicted to the roiling smoke

Afflicted by the burn

On which I choke

Afflicted by the burn

On which I choke

On which I choke
