Broken lady with the heart of gold
I think that your story should be told
the system has got you hooked on drugs
a life you thought was just for mugs

you screamed in agony with torturous pain
the doctors upped the meds again
before long it had you in its grip
the devil's elixir you'd taken a sip

the change in you; you couldn't see
you used to love; now you hate me
now for you theres no letting go
prescription drugs is all you know

all the days run into one
the life you had has almost gone
on a cycle of endless pain
and every day is now the same

a cocktail of doctors death
is all you want with every breath
waking up its on your mind
where are the pills you need to find

family and friends watch your decay
you won't listen to what they say
they offer help that you refuse
you're the one they don't want to lose

you're paranoid they're all spies
but they're looking at your demise
gone from the great that you used to be
to an hopeless addict that won't break free

its not now about the pain 
its the feeling in the brain
its not real its just a trick
the devils moonshine you took a sip
