Cop provisions feed my addictions
Mistakes I made then, I opened up the holes and they got in
Now when it's time for the feed they won't let me forget
They ride upon my back and they fuck me with their needs
My invisible enemies, all my monkeys
They're coming
They're coming
They're coming
They're coming to take me away, haha
Disgusted
With my position
So submissive I am
The only way we get away is give in
Sharpen up the razors
Stab the needles into pipes
To kill cravings
So sick of this in me
Can't stand the want the need
Can't get free
Always got a grip on me
There's no use to fight this wrenching tourniquet of deprivation
Obedience, subservience leads to substance
(Everything I've become now is everything I didn't want to be)
Give it to me
Give it to me
Leave my motivation to chemical dependency
No room for patience
Don't want it, need it, come on
Right now
(Everything I've become now is everything I didn't want to be)
Every time I try to run away I fall on my face
They drag me back
They drag me back
Every time I try to run away I fall on my face
Help, they won't leave me alone
Help, they won't leave me alone
They won't leave me alone
If I would have known back then what I know now I 'd take it back
I'd take it back
If I would have known back then what I know now I 'd take it back
I'd take it back
I'd take it all fuckin' back
Stay away
Stay away
Hold
Me, I'm shaking violently
Pull
Me, out of my covering
Mold
Me, into a new man
Lull
Me, into a deep sleep
Stay away
Stay away
Hold
Me, I'm shaking violently
Pull
Me, out of my covering
Mold
Me, into a new man
Lull
Me, into a deep sleep
One, two
There's no use to fight this wrenching tourniquet of deprivation
Obedience, subservience leads to substance
(Everything I've become now is everything I didn't want to be)
Even if you want you can't stop
Even if you want you can't stop
Even if you want you can't stop
Even if you want you can't stop
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
Internal primates (forever)
