Feel your every heartbeat, feel you on these empty nights
Calm the ache, stop the shakes -- you clear my mind
You're my escape from this messed up place
'Cause you let me forget; you numb my pain

How can I tell you just all that you are?
What you do to me

You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' on to get me high

Feel you when I'm restless, feel you when I cannot cope
You're my addiction, my prescription, my antidote
You kill the poison, ease the suffering
Calm the rage when I'm afraid to feel again

How can I tell you just all that you are?
What you do to me

You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' on to get me high

How can I tell you just all that you are?
What you do to me

Feel your every heartbeat, feel you on these empty nights
You're the strength of my life

You're better than drugs
Your love is like wine
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' to get me high
You're better than drugs
Addicted for life
Feel you comin' on so fast, feel you comin' on to get me high

    It is, as other people have said quite often, about God being better than drugs. God can give you a "high" better than any drug, and the only consequence is going to Heaven. kittycat93, this of course can also apply to what you said, it always depends on your interpretation. Just remember that this is really about God.
