How my feelings are like an addiction, they take a hold of my soul
Madness, it hides in a well placed disguise, and it causes loss of all control
Thin lines of smoke circle around my head, they beckon as they hypnotize
Spiraling upward and surrounding me, seducing as they baptize

Tell me why can't you see that this reason to be
Will hold on for the rest of my life
I don't know why i'm here and that fills me with fear
I believe that my faith will end my strife

They are dancing, oh how they are dancing, like a puppet that hangs from its strings
Feeling the flames burning from my desire, safe as the night rainfall sings
Lost in it all i continue to fall, from hands that were once secure
Sickened by this overwhelming sadness, i constantly look for the cure

Why can't you see that this reason to be
Will hold on for the rest of my life
Being unstuck in time without reason or rhyme
I believe that my faith will end my strife

I'm overcome and i'm overdrawn, spiritless i am lost and gone
My mind is blank and slate as well, reasonless i can not tell
These empty dreams that i can not believe, the puppets are set on the stage
With what am i left when the curtain falls down, and in silence they all turn away

Why can't you see that this reason to be
Will hold on for the rest of my life
I don't know why i'm here and that fills me with fear
I believe that my faith will end my strife

Tell me why can't you see that this reason to be
Will hold on for the rest of my life
Being unstuck in time without reason or rhyme
I believe that my faith will end my strife

How my feelings are like an addiction, they take a hold of my soul
