Like a Drug

I'm not sure of the feeling
Whether it be good or bad
But it is my heart you're stealing

I like the effect you give
It makes me feel alive
It gives me a reason to live

When I am around you
There are no other faces
I don't know what to do
My heart just races

No more can I sleep
I just lie there awake
These feelings run deep

Where do I stand
Where do we go
These answers I demand

You run through my veins
I can't get you out of my head
I will be bound in chains
When this poison does spread
