I'm addicted to the pain that you give me,
The taste of the blood in my mouth,
And I can't say no to your violence,
I can't say no to your love,
I'm addicted to a blood red drug,
Addicted to a powerful thirst,
I yearn for each strike that you deal me,
So I can see the red bloom on my skin,
I yearn for the feel of your hand on my waist,
As you pull me closer to you,
I yearn for the contrast you give me,
The mystery of all that you hold,
Caring, wrapped in the violence,
Love that's wrapped in a rage,
Addicted to the pain that you give me,
Addicted to the violence of love.
