intro page

addict

I don’t need your help
and I don’t need your kind advice
I won’t take a thing from you
’cause I won’t pay the price
you demand too much of me
you want to save my soul
you’ve got all the answers
and you just won’t let me go
now I let you live your life
why can’t you let me live mine?
why do you have to care so much?
why do you waste your time?

and if you think that you can change me
go right ahead and try—
I can play your game with you
I can tell you lies
straight into your eyes

once I tried it your way
and I opened up my heart
but He didn’t solve my problems
’cause I wouldn’t let Him start
I waited for His miracles
I even tried to pray 
closed my eyes and sang your songs
but nothing came my way
so I turned again to other things
that make me feel good
things that I just won’t give up
even if I could

and if you think that you can change me
go right ahead and try—
I can play your game with you
I can tell you lies
straight into your eyes

and I’m falling in a fantasy
from which there’s no escape
the more I try to stop myself
the more I have to take
I am fighting for an answer
to a question I can’t read
there’s a hundred strangers waiting
to tell me what I need…

now you have guessed my secret
and you know just what I do
and I think inside you understand
when I laugh at you
but still there are times
when you don’t even know I’m there
when the silent hunger in my eyes
is begging you to care

and if you think that He can change me
go ahead and try—
it’s not all just a game with me, it isn’t all a lie—
but I can’t tell you why

save me, won’t You save me
save me, won’t You save me
save me, won’t You save me
save me, won’t You save
save me
