Analysis of Addiction



Ever had an addiction?
Then you know what it feels like
When your palms start itching
And your minds on overdrive
But you have to fight
Fight it off

I have addiction
It's a strange addiction it really is
My palms start itching
And my mind goes crazy

I know how I can satisfy it
I do
I crave to cut
I crave the sensation

You might think I'm crazy
You might think I'm weird
But it's my addiction you see

If you've ever had an addiction
You know how I feel
When your palms start itching
And your mind goes crazy

But you have to fight it off

Fight it off
Fight it off
