Lyrics[]
(chorus: LaQuaria)
I was hooked on you like a drug
Addiction never felt better
I was addicted like a drug
Never gonna lie
I loved it so much
Oooooh, Ooooh
Ooooh ooooh
(verse 1)
First kiss was like the first injection
First touch was like the first inhale
I never want this moment to end yeah
I want you to stay forever
Like a fire our love burns brightly
Brighter than the starts nightly
I want to be your addiction forever
Like D Kane said I can be your addiction
Wanna get hooked on me
(chorus)
(Skrillex: dubstep breakdown)
(verse 2 singing)
Oooooh
Oooooh
You wanna stay forever
Be my prince of darkness
Wanna be mine
Be mine forever
You wanna stay til the clock rings our time is up
Now if you please, step inside, our new life is waiting
Yeaaaaaaah
(chorus)
(dubstep breakdown)
(Outro x2)
You wanna stay
Wanna play
Wanna be my drug tonight
Forever
and ever
and ever
Be my love tonight
