Addict (Original)
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
I am no enigma I am just a girl
My love is simple my love is pure
She used to starve me in the afternoon
She gave me nothing, I had everything to lose
(Chorus)
I am an addict of the female kind
I crave their love and they bleed me dry
Just give me something to get through the night
I am begging for your graceless high
High, high
(Verse 2)
I am no saint but hear my cries
My plead is simple, my plead is kind
She is the giver and I am the tree
I think she likes torturing me
(Chorus)
I am an addict of the female kind
I crave their love and they bleed me dry
Just give me something to get through the night
I am begging for your graceless high
High, high
(Bridge)
My spiteful heart doesn’t know when enough’s enough
It’s a problem when you know you can’t stop
She’s better than all the sex and all the drugs
I overdosed on the feeling of us
(Chorus)
I am an addict of the female kind
I crave their love and they bleed me dry
Just give me something to get through the night
I am begging for your graceless high
I am begging, begging
I am begging, begging, begging
For your graceless high
high
(Verse 4)
Leave me here
It’s what’s best for me
These wild women have turned their backs on me
Carve my name in the trunk of a tree
Here lies the addict who couldn’t get free
