Lyrics
Junkie
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.
I know how wear the costume
I know how to wear the mask
I even like the feel of having to ask
I like the sound of your whistle
I like the way you wear your grin
I even like the taste of my will caving in
Chorus:
I'm not a junkie for your love
I'm not a junkie
I'm not a junkie for you love
I'm not a junkie
Don't tell the captain
Don't you tell him what I've done *
Keep it coming
Keep it coming
Stop
This is such a sweet collaboration
You got the power & I got the shame
Funny thing is we both want somebody to blame
Chorus
I'm not a junkie for your love...
Go tell tell captain
Won't you tell him what I've done
