On a path of destruction Can we ever break out? You tell yourself it's nothing As your future comes down If you fan the fire You might burn alive Maybe it's addiction And you won't survive the night The overdose won't stop The epidemic spreads (It's the fire, it's the lies) The deceivers writhing, burning alive (It's the truth, never said) The thoughts are burning in your head If history repeats Then the lies are retold The messenger of false hope Fills the streets with blood If you fan the fire You might burn alive Maybe it's addiction That you can't survive The overdose won't stop The epidemic spreads (It's the fire, it's the lies) The deceivers writhing, burning alive (It's the truth, never said) The thoughts are burning in your head Overdose! It's the choice you make It's the lives you break It's your personal Hell that you can't escape On a path of destruction Can we ever break out? You tell yourself it's nothing As your future comes down If you fan the fire You might burn alive Maybe it's addiction And you won't survive The overdose won't stop The epidemic spreads (It's the fire, it's the lies) The deceivers writhing, burning alive (It's the truth, never said) The thoughts are burning in your head
