Addiction
Stormrider Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Forever drunk
A state you wish to reach
Pleasure of intoxication
Bring out some more - alcohol!

I am in control
I am your desire
I am in control
I am your god

Sex, pain, insane
They are all the same
I will realize
All of your dreams

Everything looks better
When you are really wasted




Why don't you take another drink
Leave all your worries to another - day!
