Lonely Addiction

So it's that time again, is it?
Another round of your guilt
with a terror chaser?
No thanks, none for me.
I've had my fill.
My tab is all paid up.
No more orders for me.
No more duties to be added.
No more taxes to be tallied.
I've been coming here
for way too long
and payed far too much
for the time wasted.
I'm on the road to recovery
and I'm not hopping off
this wagon ride!
If you see me walking
down the street,
don't ask me to come in.
I've read over the menu
and none of it interests me.
I don't want to hear
about the specials
and I don't want
any more discounts.
Cancel my account.
I won't be coming back.
