Addict Lyrics

I'm giving up

It's time to strike back

I'll try my luck

I'm taking my life back

I'm taking my life back

I'll do it myself

You can't go to hell for me

You will never know the pain I'm in

The mess I've been

You'll never know the strength it takes

To start again

I have to fight this day and night

To feel alright

Just to feel alright

The darkness pulls me inside

It welcomes me in

It knows me like a dear friend

It lets my weakness eat me from the inside

No light

I cannot find my own might

To fight the demons that embrace me so tight

I have to fight this day and night

I have to fight this pain inside

I'll do it myself

You can't go to hell for me

You will never know the pain I'm in

The mess I've been

You'll never know the strength it takes

To start again

I have to fight this day and night

To feel alright

Just to feel alright

If this kills me I can't be

The things I need me to be

All this said, the lesson is

I'll always know the pain inside as my old friend

My muse has left me for dead

And, oh, I've had enough

I will not settle for less

I'm not your runner up

It's time to stand up, wind up

Batter up, batter up

Bottoms up

I'm not your runner up

They said that god would strike me down with lightning

But he only lets me down

Why would he stop now?

Why would he stop now?

You will never know the pain I'm in

The mess I've been

You'll never know the strength it takes

To start again

I have to fight this day and night

To feel alright

To feel allowed to feel

You will never know the pain I'm in

The mess I've been

You'll never know the strength it takes

To start again

I have to fight this day and night

To feel alright

Just to feel alright

If this kills me I can't be

The things I need me to be

All this said, the lesson is

I'll always know the pain inside as my old friend
