The Allure of Self Destruction - Black Water Rising

We’re all living to crash and burn

And the lesson is never learned

Just paying the price to roll the dice

Back in line for another turn

All you need is a new prescription

A cure for this affliction

The magic touch of a chemical crutch

To ease and old addiction

(Chorus)

I know it’s no good for me but I do it anyway

You know it’s no good for you but you do it anyway

The allure of self destruction

Makes a daily introduction

To fill the hole in an empty soul

It’s a powerful seduction

Save the judgments save the trial

Until you walk that endless mile

Countdowns begun beneath the setting sun

In a world of mad denial

(Chorus)
