[Intro: Matt Walst]
Another relapse
[Verse 1: Matt Walst]
Every day I'm walking the wire
I kind of miss the kiss of the fire
'Cause nothing ever got me higher
Than knowing I could fall
I balance on the edge of a knife
I've been the same way all of my life
The times I could have died
I can't count them all
[Chorus: Adam Gontier, Matt Walst, Both]
You don't know how much I miss that feeling
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close, you take me right back
I get so close, another relapse
No regard for the life you're stealing
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close to recovering
I'm on the edge and you're creeping in again
You make me go from bad to worse to extreme
You take me right back, another relapse
[Post-Chorus: Matt Walst]
A-A-Another relapse
[Verse 2; Adam Gontier, Matt Walst]
Anything's a brand new relief
The pressure's got to find a release
Just to get a moment of peace
I could make that call
Every second that I'm awake
I feel like I'm about to make another mistake
I feel like that's all that it would take
To die behind these walls
[Chorus: Adam Gontier, Matt Walst, Both]
You don't know how much I miss that feeling
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close, you take me right back
I get so close, another relapse
No regard for the life you're stealing
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close to recovering
I'm on the edge and you're creeping in again
You make me go from bad to worse to extreme
You take me right back, another relapse
[Post-Chorus: Adam Gontier & Matt Walst]
Another relapse
[Bridge: Adam Gontier]
Lights out, I'm spiraling
You've always been my only friend
Lights out, we're going in
It's you and me until the end
[Chorus: Adam Gontier, Matt Walst]
You don't know how much I miss that feeling
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close, you take me right back
I get so close, another relapse
No regard for the life you're stealing
Maybe just a little taste won't kill me
I get so close to recovering
I'm on the edge and you're creeping in again
You make me go from bad to worse to extreme
You take me right back, another relapse
[Post-Chorus: Matt Walst]
Another relapse
[Outro: Matt Walst]

Adam Gontier:
Way back before the band was even signed, I had my issues, and I battled addiction and stuff. And it’s still a constant thing. It’s always there. So, the song is kind of self-explanatory in that way—just being aware of relapse and what it means. I was in and out of rehabs and in and o...
