Addiction

A song about a girl, lost in her own weakness

This monkey on my back
Is a monster in the guise
Of a passionate embrace
Of a lovely little time.

It serves a few free kisses
On these lips that I have wet
But the bite of vicious jaws
Still awaits me yet.

And it's hot breath on my neck
Is exciting for a while
But this demon who pursues me
Has intentions cruel and vile.

Still each time I'm opened up
I so willingly accept him
It steals my days and nights
He fills me up with his sin.

And when he's spent himself
It claws out of my heart
To leave me dirty desperate
Far emptier than the start.

Alone at last, I fear the sun
As I swim in greasy guilt
I pray for greater strength, oh Lord
I am his slut, his love filth...
