Lyrics
Addiction King
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's about time for an innovation
very few have come close
so clear so right in time
the past died painlessly with me
the incident was over
now things looks so fine
so vast and divine
I was a sucker for it
it tasted worse all the time
but I can't get it out of my mind
what have I been using for brains
when being parted with it
is like a fly with one wing
hating it with the whites of my eyes
I was such an angleworm
a slave to the addiction king
the state I was in
a will to escape
I need to reinstate
led astray but the delicious bait
I was a sucker for it
it tasted worse all the time
but I can't get it out of my mind
got a will to escape
I need to reinstate
led astray but the delicious bait
