Addiction Lyrics

You, you're not justified
To take my flesh and blood child
And rape my pride

I, I got a holocaust in my soul
You tried to shape me
But I broke the mould

My beliefs flow like blood from a stone
As I fight to stay within the dream
That rusts inside your soul

[Chorus:]
Realize what you're giving me
Is feeding my addiction

You, love everything you're shown
It's times these you gotta
Keep us with the Jones's
Entertaining my ideas
I haven't felt this good in years
Shining on your crucifix
The love you preach
Is the hell you kissed

[Chorus]

Realize what you're giving me
Justify all your casualties
Realize I'm gonna break these chains
Justify, don't take my love in vain

[Chorus]

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
