"Addiction starts like a sweet lullaby sung by a trusted loved one. It washes away the pains of the day and wraps you safely in the warmness of the womb where nothing hurts and every dream is possible. Yet soon enough, this warm state of bliss becomes a cold shiver, the ecstasy and dreams become nightmares, yet we can't stop listening to the lullaby for suffering. We crave to hear the siren song as it rips us apart. A powerful list of incredible talent has woven tales featuring the insidious nature of addiction - damaged humans craving for wholeness, but finding something more horrific on the other side. Come and listen to these Lullabies for Suffering."--Back cover
