Song about drug addiction.
“Chasing the dragon” is a slang phrase of Cantonese origin from Hong Kong referring to inhaling the vapor from a heated solution of morphine, heroin, oxycodone, opium.
Free my mind, heal my scars;
Erase the past
Dark days to forget, and memories to last;
In my heart
Free me now
Make me forget and forgive
There's no use to go on and live
Show me a way
To the sun
Heal my scars
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light;
Give up the fight here
Let my eyes take in the beauty that's here;
That's left on this earth
My ears long to hear a melody
Give me sight
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light;
Give up the fight here
Poison is slowly seeping through my veins
Stealing the only dignity in me
I pick them up and let them fall
To cause your pain and hit them all
One more life to live is what I want
I'll take the joy away from them
See to it, they will all be damned
One more chance to heal what I have harmed
The dragon is wreaking havoc in my brain
Plays my emotion; a never-ending game
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light;
Give up the fight here
One more life to live for me
I want the night just to colour the day
The morning to chase all my nightmares away
Don't you deny that we're all human beings
We all have our flaws that can make us obscene
Obscene!
Give me what I want
Give me what I need right now
That's what I want
That's what I need, get it!
Dolendo novit mortalis vitam
Tell me what I want
Tell me what I need right now
That's what I want
That's all I need, cure me
Dolendo discit mori mortalis
Losers!
Nothing will be forever gone
Memories will stay and find their way
What goes around will come around
Don't deny your fears
So let them go and fade into light;
Give up the fight
