In an abyss of misery a horrid monster dwells
Lapping from pools of bleeding hearts
Nesting in tears and crushed dreams
Has a need to hoard stolen treasures
Cries of pain and anguish feed its ego
Gluttony rules its throne of pilfered souls
Never will it show prejudice or discriminate
Long tentacles with poison thorns thrash about
Touching innocence and those that never chose
Leaving jagged and oozing scars that never heal
Dropping seeds of hate in those that loved
Begging for mercy only fuels it desire
Bites the hand reaching to help
Broken in pieces is just the beginning
Taking babies to watch the mother suffer
This Monster with an insatiable thirst
Goes by the name Addiction
Its one true love is Utter Destruction
