Thinking about a friend and her problems, and then more about
people in general and compulsions, including my own, I thought
up this song. There is music to it I ought to transcribe; the
tune is aggressive, fast rock.
I lie here shaking on my bed,
my pounding heart, my aching head.
I have inside a burning need,
Addiction! Addiction!
I can't run, I can't hide.
Addiction! Addiction!
it will not be denied.
I try so hard but I can feel
it turning in me like a wheel.
First fear then rage then helplessness
they all lead to one happiness...
Addiction! Addiction!
I want it, I need it.
Addiction! Addiction!
Give me just a little bit.
[instrumental, increasing in tempo,
then a "crash" effect]
I feel so good that I don't care.
It's my own secret cross to bear.
It's not as if I've gone too far.
I'm not unique, we all have our...
Addiction! Addiction!
You have yours, I have mine.
Addiction! Addiction!
When does it cross the line?
