I’m Your God Now

Posted on by

So pain told you to take her
Well I learned to accept that feeling
‘Cause I found how to numb it
If only for just a short while
I’d get so high I’d forget my name
I scarred my fists.
I scarred my brain
I think that I’m going insane
I know that I’m going insane

So drink up, so shoot in
Why must this feeling end
I crawled in my narcotic shell
Was crucified in my own hell
A gutter’s where I found myself
Amongst the waste I chose to dwell
I chose to dwell

So now I’m in your system
And I’m what helps you numb your pain
With time you will confide in me
So lonely my friend.
I’ve made you lose control
You’ll use me more and more with time
Our friendship grows with each mainline
So glad that you could be so blind
So glad that you could be so blind

So drink up, so shoot in
‘Cause I’ll make this feeling end
I built you this narcotic shell
I crucified you in your hell
Your life not yours, you’re just my slave
I am your messiah of pain

And time has come to….
Time has come to
Time has come to……
There’s no time to pray
‘Cause I’m your God now

Welcome in my friend
Out of the cold where it’s warm
Please step in
What’s your name my friend?
My name’s the same
What a strange coincidence
Glad you’re come to this place
What’s the pleasure you chase?

Oh, you like playing with speed
Well I have all the answers you need

I can take you
High and make you
Invincible
I’ll never leave you

Welcome in my friend
Try some of this
What you’ll feel is amazing
Tap a tiny blast
In a crease of foil
Place this flame beneath it
White smoke you will inhale
A speed rush you will exhale
The goose bumps prickle your skin
Just enough to dig the hooks in

I can take you
High and make you
Invincible
But now you’re hollow

You’re crawling on the floor
But you’ll be back for more

Hello there my friend
Back for the sweet poison so soon again
But this lie must end
I must collect for those pleasures gave
When I first told you my name
I told you ours were the same
And that’s not really a lie
My real name is your addiction

I will bring you
Down and break you
Burn right through you
Won’t regret you
