Core of My Addiction
Fireflight Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your eyes see right through me
I'm dependent and shaking
I'm falling to my knees
And I can't contain this
You're the only one I need
I'm hooked and I cannot hide it
You're the core of my addiction
I want to live, want to lose myself in You
You're the heart of my obsession
I want to live, but I would die for You
I'm addicted
Impulsive, enraptured
This yearning's captured me
I'm determined, I'm not pretending
You are my destiny
I can feel the freedom
You're the only one I need
I'm alive and finally breathing
You're my recovery
God, I've waited for this day
I'll never run away
And You won't have to chase me
I'm addicted
I'm addicted to You
