In my blood, running through my veins
On my mind, wired in my brain
Must have been incoded into my DNA
Something so powerful that it must be locked away
Chain it up and tie it down, teach it discipline and grasp it tight
Assert who is boss, even if you have to scratch and claw with all of your might
Far too powerful, taking control and causing a trance
Natural chemicals in the brain do an ecstatically cheerful dance
Compulsive patterns have the potential to destroy with no repair
Addictions come with highs but they always end in despair
