[Intro] I’m the fire you keep inviting in… The warmth that always slips away… [Verse 1] Let me in… I’ll quiet the noise inside Paint your blood with that temporary high One more time, watch the edges blur gray I chase the silence, make the shadows obey You swear tonight will be the last But I’m the chain you wear like a mask [Pre-Chorus] Every taste… a promise Every hit… a lie You keep crawling back… Can’t say goodbye [Chorus] Keep letting me in… I make you feel good I lift you high like nothing else could But the feeling dies… leaves you cold and bruised Chasing shadows you can’t refuse You may as well make me your idol Kneel at the altar of smoke and denial But the truth is… I’m only gonna kill you Slowly… slowly… [Verse 2] I am your lover… your god… your disease Whisper forever while I bring you to your knees Lights turn to strangers… love turns to rust All for this comfort you’ve learned to trust You say you can quit me… you’ve sworn it before But here you are… desperate for more [Pre-Chorus] Every night… a war you swear you’ll win But I’m already living… under your skin [Chorus] Keep letting me in… I make you feel good I lift you high like nothing else could But the feeling dies… leaves you cold and bruised Chasing shadows you can’t refuse You may as well make me your idol Kneel at the altar of smoke and denial But the truth is… I’m only gonna kill you Slowly… [Bridge] The high is gone… the crash remains… You swear this time… you’ll break these chains… But morning comes… and the hunger calls… You’ll pull me close… and watch yourself fall… [Final Chorus] Keep letting me in… I make you feel good (But I’m the poison running through…) You may as well make me your idol (Bow down… give in… embrace the truth…) I’m only gonna kill you… Slowly… slowly… I’m only gonna kill you… [Outro] Keep letting me in… Keep letting me in… [Low, almost spoken final line] Slowly…
