Description
My Addiction is a hard rock song peppered with sound FX and and undercurrent of electronic sounds to amplify the mood. This is the second song produced by Earth Below Us and was written and recorded through several email sessions and a few face to face meetings between lead guitarist Joshua Vancena and vocalist Jonathan Bouren. The meaning behind the song is self explanatory and deals with the struggles and disappointments of dealing with our internal conflicts.
Lyrics
Verse 1. Time and time again, I thought you were my friend but you showed me your dark side, one to many times. For all i know, the reasons never show. The first step is the easiest to tread that bitter road. A sirens song that calls to me, a hunger that won't let me feed, a constant pulling at my weaker side. When the colors just aren't right, it's moving out of sight, and it seems I'll meet my demons standing face to face tonight. Chorus You let me down again You stumbled when i needed a friend and I was left still addicted, still addicted We were always meant to fly, but weakness leaves us paralyzed and crawling on our knees because we're still addicted, still addicted. Verse 2. With every single pull my conscience forms a hole that all the good works of a life could never hope to fill. It's every time i start to close my eyes, and visions of my life begin destroying me inside As paranoid as i could be the voices start invading me playing games that i could never win. When the walls begin to breathe, your blood begins to freeze, i start to pull the earth down on the grave they dug for me Chorus Bridge And nothing was learned about ourselves the miles go by and we fall behind with no truth to tell, we never lie with no face to see, we can never hide, from our own, dark side but I can't let you win run far away, from me because I can't let you win and let you change me. I can't let you in run far away from me. Chorus
