The torment of drug addiction.

This Naked Flame
I gambled hard, for a taste of danger
I bet it all, on the highest game
I lost my soul, to naked stranger
Got double crossed, by a naked flame
This naked flame, just keeps on burnin`
This naked flame, drives me insane
It wont die down, to ease my conscience
It wont go down, to free my pain.
There was a road, that once I travelled
No break down lanes and no white lines
No crashed out wrecks and bodies ravelled
With acts of speed and warning signs.
In a whiskey vault, or a morphine bottle
In a cocaine cell, there rots a brain
In this dark hole, I walk a prisoner
Where shadows hide but fear`s remain.
Now all that’s lost, is unforgiven
Just like a moth, I found that flame
I`m better dead than I am livin`
For all I`ve done I am to blame
This naked flame, just keeps on burnin`
This naked flame, drives me insane
It wont die down, to ease my conscience
It wont go down, to free my pain,
It wont go down, to free my pain,
It wont go down, to free my pain ……
