Story Behind The Song

Four years ago, I was excommunicated from the Jehovah's Witness' faith and disowned by my family because of my sexuality. In the years to follow, I wrote the songs on my cd "The Afflicted" as I struggled with drugs, thoughts of suicide, and the death of my estranged father to colon cancer. This song is about the freedom that I felt when I was able to accept myself and my sexuality.

Song Description

This is a playful, flirtatious dance song about sexual attraction and fantasy. Giving in and having fun with the sexual side that exists in each of us is a very freeing feeling.

Lyrics

Obsession

I have a confession to make...
I think I?m a little obsessed

Been watching you
Your every move
My eyes cutting through
And I?m craving you
I?ll be helpless, naked, tortured, shameless
I know what I want...It?s over now
You?ll be the beautiful drug
Coursing through my veins
A new addiction
Do you have a name?
Does it matter when I need it?
Will it hurt if I feed it?
Save me now from what I do

I come undone
I take a breath and feel you crawl under my skin
Can?t get enough
Of your love, on your sweet lips I wanna binge
I come unglued
I come back once, I come back twice, then come again
See what you do?
I must confess, I am obsessed
Won?t you come inject your poison?
Obsession...

Just one more time get a good look at my face
Tell me you are haunted this way
Could you burn for me, need me
Turn for me, heal me
In everything is where I reside
In the dark when you sleep
In the air I?m alive
In the water you drink
Put the fire out inside
And every time that you?re by my side
Obsession drives you mad
You go wild

You come undone
You take a breath and feel me crawl under your skin
Can?t get enough
Of my love, on my sweet lips you?d like to binge
You come unglued
You come back once, then come back twice, then come again
See what you do?
I must confess, I am obsessed
Won?t you come inject your poison?
Obsession

Here we go...

Take a drink of your poison
Here we go
On a river to hell
Let it flow, let it flow

No telling what my come
When the pieces combine
A little bit of yours
With a little bit of mine
Look at us, how could they blame us?
Free from a world that would be loving to hate us
They say we?ll die on this river to hell we flow
What a way to go!

I come undone
I take a breath and feel you crawl under my skin
Can?t get enough
Of your love, on your sweet lips I wanna binge
I come unglued
I come back once, I come back twice, then come again
See what you do?
I must confess, I am obsessed
Won?t you come inject your poison?
Obsession...
