Lyrics
see that girl in your mirror
slowly rolling bending over your mind
thoughts of having her possess you
thought you'd left your evil twin behind
I feel my grip start to slip and my body shudder
obsessions make you do the strangest things
I awake all alone living in the gutter
scrub myself but I just can't get clean
so messed up I'm
Barely making it thru
I need it to stay high I need it just to get by
Lover dig me out of these trenches I'm in
oh why'd I begin for a flower Opium
never had a lover that I didn't do
never had a dream I did not pursue
If you need the remedy then come with me
I'm searching for the answer
chasing dragons shooting at them flirting with disaster
taunting me with her honey my erection getting out of control
such a sweet white hot stream of passion
an injection for my weary soul
I've got to go and get a life make it right pull myself together
one more hit I'll be on my way
So messed up I'm
barely making it thru
I need it to stay high I need it just to get by
Can you dig me out of these trenches I'm in
I'm all out again
Just an illusion lost in confusion
Hey whatever gets me thru the day
whatever makes me feel ok
I can't take it hopelessly taken by
whatever gets me thru the night
whatever makes me feel all right
Barely making it thru
I need it to stay high I need it just to get by
can you dig me out of these trenches I'm in
I'm all out again of a flower my opium
Barely making it thru
I need it to stay high oh I need it to get me by
lover dig me out of thse trenches I'm in
I'm all out again of a flower opium
Is it your love I'm after
