Inhale the smoke, "Take it in."

Hold it in till I choke, "Here I go again."

Breaking- My addiction is breaking

Hating- My condition I'm hating

Taking- My conviction is taking hold of me

Breaking- Never make it if I do it on my own

Breaking- I can't make it if I do it all alone

Breaking- I need you to be there when I'm going down

Breaking- I'm breaking free

Shoot it in my vein "Feel the flow."

Till I block out the pain. "Fallen down so low."

First the man takes a drink

"Then the drink takes a drink."

Then the drink takes the man

"Now I understand."

Chorus:
