New Addicts-Self Constructed

VERSE 1 I’ve said this before Just dressed it differently every time “Trust me, I’ve changed” Same pattern, new disguise I know how to speak it How to bend it How to make it sound clean But it always comes back around Everything I avoided Finds its way back in motion No hiding left No delay that holds Some things don’t stay buried Truth Weight Consequence They always surface PRE-CHORUS And I stay with it I stay with it There’s no way around this CHORUS Break me open That’s how I understand Pressure turns into clarity Only when it breaks me down I carry what I made I carry what I am And it doesn’t let go VERSE 2 I built reactions I can’t escape And now they move without me Every avoidance returns in full force Every shortcut becomes the cost I watch it unfold Not somewhere else Inside what I started Nothing outside is safe from it Not because it’s coming for me Because I built the path it takes Running doesn’t reset anything It only delays the impact And I’ve run out of delay PRE-CHORUS Now it catches up Now it catches up No pause left in it CHORUS Break me open That’s how I understand Pressure turns into clarity Only when it breaks me down I carry what I made I carry what I am And it doesn’t let go BRIDGE You can avoid reflection You can stay distracted You can keep moving But nothing stops consequence It doesn’t need permission It doesn’t need timing It just arrives BREAKDOWN Now I live with it No exit condition No reset No rewrite Just the weight returning again OUTRO It always returns It always returns It always returns No way around it I live with it
