Fire In My Vein / October 2019 / Single
Lyrics by Paul Dempsey / California
(v1)
There was fire in my vein
Such a pleasant pain
As it rushes to my brain
Where it will remain
For a while and I’ll smile
(v2)
Then when I come down
And no one is around
My cries the only sound
Like a spring over wound
I’m so tight I can’t fight
(chorus)
An endless cycle
That rips at my soul
A lifetime in prison
No hope of parole
It’s sucking my life
Into a black hole
(v3)
Then I’ll start to shake
My whole body will ache
How much I can take
Before I actually break
Into pieces, it never ceases
(bridge)
With wonderful highs and horrible lows
I’m a slave, not a master
And everyone knows
It will end in disaster
(chorus)
An endless cycle
That rips at my soul
A lifetime in prison
No hope of parole
It’s sucking my life
Into a black hole
