Album: https://suno.com/playlist/31188399-d8e7-454a-a22a-8e74c0e6b6b2 --- This is an updated version of a previously published song. The old version was published with v4.5 and the sound didn't match the rest of the upcoming "album". Also studio was acting up🤷♂️ I had to create a copy without it which is why the tag is missing. === The night is quiet, once again As my nightmares softly creep There are bottles and pills on my table The promises of sleep They're like sweet whispers of relief Like an old friend soothing away my pain But beyond the easy fix... ...A subtle poison in my vein Each pill a safety raft on an ocean of despair Made out of paper... Not getting anywhere A promise to heal the scars that time just forgot And the poison runs deeper with every single shot It's a double-edged sword Lord, which side should I hold? It's like a fleeting reward That I desire more and more... It lifts me up just to watch me fall A temporary high, a deceitful call I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions, forever restless It lifts me up just to watch me fail A temporary high, a deceitful kill I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions... almost flawless The mirror shows the reflections of the cost The pieces of my soul in the battles I've lost Substances numb my heart But they never heal the pain I'm a prisoner of my mind Cuffed by invisible shame It's a double-edged sword Lord, which side should I hold? It's like a fleeting reward That I desire more and more... It lifts me up just to watch me fall A temporary high, a deceitful call I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions, forever restless It lifts me up just to watch me fail A temporary high, a deceitful kill I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions... almost flawless I'm on a bender, off the wagon Stumbling around, a thousand sheets to the wind I'm riding the white horse... I'm chasing the dragon... ...And I'm all alone... I'm off the fucking wagon. It lifts me up just to watch me fall A temporary high, a deceitful call I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions, forever restless It lifts me up just to watch me fail A temporary high, a deceitful kill I lose my way in the arms of solace Chasing illusions... Almost flawless
