lyrics

There are those in the world that choose to die for what they're feeling
But those feelings would never choose to die for them.
If emotions had skin then half of mine would be peeling
Like petals departing the stem.
There are no degrees of greatness,
There's just greatness and then there's the rest.

Luck is my drug,
I just need another hit,
One tiny taste and that'll be it.

We're all formed in the forge of the rotten parts of heaven
Without ever being told what we're designed to be.
It looked like it took a lot of time to learn all those lessons
But now Time won't learn anything from me.
Because I dreamt of a day when Fate lost its teeth
And on pillows we lay with them hidden underneath.

Luck is my drug,
I just need another hit,
One tiny taste and that'll be it.

Now every soul I see wears the stain of superstition,
So gloriously pointless like a retrospective premonition.
Let's all dive where it's deepest and speed where none have sped,
We'll ride the wave while it knows no ebb.
Before Time's tidal lines leave their trace on my face
With memories that linger like a stale aftertaste.

Luck is my drug,
I just need another hit
One little dose and that'll be it.
Just one tiny taste
And that'll be it.
