Confessions Of An Addict



Hands white, trembling, still typing furiously
Taking in the words, reading seriously


Bags under my eyes, hours without sleep
Can't eat, fixated on you, in too deep


Bloodshot, swollen stare-- hypnotized, I stay
Frozen in my zone, can't be forced away


Techno-addiction, I admit defeat
Your mind-control mission is now complete


Haywired brain needs rehabilitation
Where it all ends-- hospitalization
