Oil (Band) - Life Addiction

Copied!edit Lyrics

★ Verse 1 ★
Looking for a way to feed your appetite
You're blinded by this world you live in, caught up in the fight

★ Chorus 1 ★
(It's in your way) Controls your life
And you can't move it
(Bringing you down) Feeding you lies
And you can't see them
Life addiction, life addiction

★ Verse 2 ★
You're living day by day with never enough time
Nothing satisfies your hunger, nowhere left to turn

★ Chorus 2 ★
(It's in your way) Controls your life
And you can't move it
(Bringing you down) Feeding you lies
And you can't see them
Life addiction, life addiction, yeah-yah

★ Verse 3 ★
The promise has been made through the blood of Christ
Still, you choose to hide in darkness, afraid of the truth
You're blinded

★ Chorus 3 ★
(It's in your way) Controls your life
And you can't move it
(Bringing you down) Feeding you lies
And you can't see thеm
(It's in your way) Controls your life
And you can't move it
(Bringing you down) Feeding you lies
And you can't see thеm
Life addiction, life addiction
You're addicted to life!

The song "Life Addiction" by Oil is a powerful rock anthem that delves into the struggles of being consumed by the materialistic and superficial aspects of life. The lyrics speak to the constant search for fulfillment and satisfaction in a world that often leaves us feeling empty and lost. The addictive nature of chasing after success, wealth, and validation is portrayed as a destructive force that controls and blinds us from seeing the truth. Despite the promises of finding salvation and peace in Christ, the protagonist continues to hide in darkness, afraid to confront their inner demons. The chorus repeats the refrain of being controlled by life addiction, emphasizing the overpowering grip it has on their existence. Overall, the song serves as a reminder of the dangers of becoming fixated on superficial desires and the importance of seeking true fulfillment and purpose.
