Everything* we find *pleasure in are always temporary From the finest champagne to the large stacks of money Dollar bills give a thrill for a night and maybe another But soon the wallet will be empty and you'll be without a lover Lipstick stains fade as the night draws to a close As we lose touch with reality and our lives Nothing seems real until you experience pain Or until you feel your heart slowing down Life isn't as fun as the movies tell you Life is far worse than you will ever know As your addictions infect your brain with greed Your love for temporary bliss will be hard to contain And it will constantly haunt your mind Until you get the feeling you want and need so desperately
Withdrawal symptoms are hard to bear When you're so far up in the air Stuck on a high from material objects It will affect every part of your thoughts It won't stop until you reach a new low And your adrenaline rush turns into an overdose An overdose of the drug that is bliss From the things that bring you happiness It can be *******, fine champagne A love for expensive luxury and money A need for attention and affection Which you find in the deadly addictions That creep into your brain and consume What is left of your pure mind
