A Synthetic Soul

Chemical Burn

These will be the times of your life
seeming to speed through these days and nights.
Feeling the warmth from the flickering light.
These will be the times of your life.

All you will need from me is my taste
and not long you'll see you've become a slave.
You will spend nearly every dime you make
to spend as many nights as you have awake.

Like a chemical burn scorching your mind.
Coming back to me Child is making you mine.
Indulging and taking your deepest breaths.
Putting me down will be the toughest test.

I'm changing you in the most subtle of ways
and you've multiple methods of proving your faith.
You'll never sleep and then if you dream, it's not at night.
You'll soon see these will be the times of your life.

Needing me more than you ever did before.
I'll dissolve activities that you've once enjoyed.
Can you see all the ties and time that I destroy?
These have been the times of your life I hope that you've enjoyed.

Choices must to be made to see who you will hold.
I believe that its me that has you under control.
I'm all you'll need, cause I'll leave you with that urge
Try walking away from me child and we'll both see if you return.
