Ever since I met you...

I've been STUCK,
Stuck in the spider web of ruin you've been spewing ,

Your lust is the strongest adhesive I've ever encountered ,
And your kisses were like a low blow too swift for me to counter ,
So I just let you win
I tapped out and gave in
Now
I'm just stuck ,

Stuck being more in love with what we may become instead of what we are ,
Because what we are,
Is like a NASCAR doing 200mph with the brakes cut,

What I'm saying is we are moving too fast
And I want to take my foot off the gas
But I can't
Seem to get it up
You've got me addicted to the rush
A need to keep going till im exhausted
You've made the notion of being close to self destruction attractive
A massive deviation from my natural being
Because naturally im used to being in control
And oh !
How the tides have turned
I no longer gently press upon the shores
I once used to
Instead I erode and corrode all my defenses
My moral compass only points to you
I can't navigate to where common sense is

Since I met you I've been stuck
And defenseless
Against the hypnosis that is your beauty
Against the hypnosis that is your passion
Being apart of it subjects me to sleep paralysis,
It's like I'm stuck in a DREAM come through
A dream I don't want to wake from...
