ADDICTED TO THE DAMAGE
[Intro] (distorted whispers / atmospheric) Yeahโฆ I should walk awayโฆ But you already know I wonโtโฆ Mm. [Verse 1] Started like a warning I ignored in the dark Pretty little chaos with a match and a spark Said donโt get close, but I moved in anyway Now I got your fingerprints all over my pain You talk like heaven but your touch feels cursed Every time I heal, you just make it worse I know what you are, yeah I see it clear Still show up every time you pull me near 2 AM and Iโm back in the same damn loop Tell myself Iโm done, then I run to you You got that kind of pull that rewires my brain Turn heartbreak into something I crave [Pre-Chorus] I know betterโฆ Thatโs the dangerous part You donโt even gotta lie I hand you my heart [Chorus] Iโm addicted to the damage To the high before the fall To the way you leave me breaking Then make me want it after all Youโre the poison I keep choosing The habit I canโt change Everybody says youโre killing me But Iโm addicted to the damage [Verse 2] Your love got sharp edges dressed in pretty skin Every exit I find somehow pulls me back in Friends say run, but they donโt know the high Of being destroyed by your favorite lie I should hate the taste but I know it too well Got me romanticizing my own private hell Every scarโs a souvenir with your name in smoke And somehow I still laugh at the jokes You wreck me soft, then wreck me slow And somehow thatโs the only thing that feels like home That should scare me more than it does tonight But here I am waiting on another fight [Bridge] (big emotional alt-rock lift) Maybe I love what breaks me Maybe I need the pain Maybe without the chaos I donโt know who remains [Final Chorus] Iโm addicted to the damage To the ache, the crash, the flames To the ghost of what you almost were And the hope that still remains Youโre the poison I keep choosing The wound I recreate Everybody says youโre killing me But Iโm addicted to the damage [Outro] (soft / broken) Yeahโฆ Maybe theyโre rightโฆ Maybe I like the way it burnsโฆ
