So naive when we first met

Your aroma, an acidic scent

Looking like a bridal gown

But under heat a golden brown

As I sit here on the side of my bed

With this needle I thee wed

Forget all others it's you instead

With this needle I thee wed

This marriage has no fancy dress

My arm is ready to compress

If I inject you into my life

Surely you’ll become my wife

You’re the needle and I’m the thread

With this needle I thee wed

I'll never leave you it's like I said

With this needle I thee wed

Wondering what lies ahead

Anticipation runs through my head

Just you and me and I say yes

I feel euphoric as you ingress

So full of tracks & scars

They're just a part of our shared memoirs

These wounds I bear devote my love

There’s no other that I speak of

I’ll do what it takes for you my dear

I'm a lowlife now and that is clear

Once respected but now a louse

Will I overdose on you, my spouse

Many times we shared our bed

These veins they just need to be fed

I need to feel your stainless steel

You've become my Achilles’' heel

I'm on the floor, I’ve got the shakes

I need my fix for goodness sakes

I need my lovers soothing mix

I'm feeling beaten by a ton of bricks
