Under The Needle

I'm watching the lines, looks like Christ is defined
All these names in my arms is my salvation through the bad times
Revolution in my back telling stories of the past
The pleasure and the pain, I can feel them in my veins

This is my peace, my sanity
I don't wanna wake up
From this eternity
I'm bleeding from within
It never seems to end
My addiction is
That needle in my skin

You're my sadist, I'm your masochist, endless hours on the grind
My anger deep inside is slowly turning into black and grey
And the portraits come alive, it's so real and divine
You're my hero, you're the king, your mark stays forever

This is my peace, my sanity
I don't wanna wake up
From this eternity
I'm bleeding from within
It never seems to end
My addiction is
That needle in my skin

Hopelessly I'm denying the pain and I can't be weak
Desperately I'm creating illusions to ease my mind
Slowly with precision I'll see the life of your masterpiece
Thank you for the love you gave me
It's the art in your heart that motivates me

I'm bleeding from within
It never seems to end
My addiction is
I'm bleeding from within
It never seems to end
My addiction is
That needle in my skin
