Addiction - Glenn Hughes

Let me breathe, my tired body

Let me sleep inside my bed

Don’t let me fall into the darkness

While you weave your tangled web

Don’t leave me slain beside the gutter

Show me my flesh, then lock me in,

Then wash me down in holy water

Then close my eyes, until I’m gone

Throw my soul into the fire

Let my body burn in sin

It’s so cold and I’m no liar

And it’s all the same, all the same

It’s just addiction

You can’t deny the pain you’re under

You know the wheel refuse to turn

Can’t break that spell and you have 2 wonder

Can’t walk away, you never learn

Don’t live that lie, 'cos you can take it You must have been some kind of man

I feel the rage of your condition

'Cos you will find euphoria

Can you taste your last temptation?

Your state of mind is filled with shame

If you fail to shake your demon

Tormented life, no one to blame
