Acting As Your Slave Lyrics - Verve Pipe

My hand asleep for hours 

Waiting for the needles to begin 

I have no control 

They proceed to penetrate my skin 

Acting as your slave 

I drink for amber waves 

I never have embraced 

Acting as your slave 

I drink an open grave 

Epitaph defaced 

Killing with compassion 

She hasn't heard a word that I have said 

Swallowing your passion 

I can see a thousand miles ahead 

Acting as your slave 

I drink for barricades 

That I have often raised 

Acting as your slave 

I numb my head and rave 

Of epitaphs defaced 

Acting as your slave 

I drank while she forgave 

With trials left unfaced 

Acting as your slave 

I stumble to her grave 

An epitaph's defaced
