The candle for the addict

[Manslick]

[verse]
I am hot plasma
Affixed to a wick
You long for my charisma
As I flicker; twist and kick
[verse]
I’m a sermon spun in light
Unlike yours that’s sprung from grief
I give you warmth and delight
But I feel your time is brief
[chorus]
A candle in your darkness
Is the only thing you can see
Your mind is fogged in beer froth
Your body a knotted chain
[verse]
I am born from friction
Where want drives the spark
To the fire of hard addiction
Unfed I gnarl and bark
[verse]
The spoon is worn and tarnished
Your inverted reflection is deeply varnished
your need is like a juggernaut
And your soul is firmly caught
[bridge]
We’re the same thing you and I
Burning hot. Destined to die
I; tethered to the short wick
You; owned by that sweet lick
you use my heat over the silver tomb
The silver chalice from the womb
You embrace the serpent’s kiss
And feel the warmth and bliss
[chorus]
A candle in your darkness
Is the only thing you can see
Your mind is fogged in beer froth
Your body a knotted chain
[verse]
Finally I taper and turn to smoke
You;; come to and hit some coke
I am way way better than you.
Right?
[spoken]
All you see is black in the noon sunlight
[chorus]
A candle in your darkness
Is the only thing you can see
Your mind is fogged in beer froth
Your body a knotted chain
