God-Shaped Hole Lyrics

Got no time for silly words

I need that sweet venom right through myself

Need it so much that it hurts

I know without it I'm losing my mind

My dependence surreal

This addiction is sweet to the taste

Without it how could I feel?

No - my body can't function alone

Plug it into my arm!

I don't need food or air to breathe

The void into my veins

I am in love...

The hole I was given inside

The uncontrollable passion I squeeze in its place

I defend no longer - I'm making you stronger

You're fixing my woe as I'm fixing on you

The ecstasy that burns me inside

I'm seeing such colours I've never seen before

I want this addiction for life

This is such perfection - its such flawed perfection

"You shouldn't have touched me

For now I'll never want to let you go..."

Now that my senses are spoilt

Every taste from now on is wretched and plain

The residue of that sweet, sweet absentee

You'll never reclaim that old innocence

The hit is wearing away

I tried to fill the hole with an absence of shape

If I'm to recover there must be no other

In love...
