lyrics

You want it you need it you're aching to feed it you hold it close
The ache in your bones has made you its own and you need the dose
Your mind keeps on racing your heart is erasing your common sense
But all you can taste is the rapture of breaking your last defence

And you're addicted to the lime light
Addicted to the time right
When nobody is looking at anything but you
Addicted to the front page
Addicted to the center stage 
Cause nothing can compete
Nothing tastes as sweet as
Lime

It makes you it breaks you, it's always awake, you can feel the pull
It calls in the night, the draw of the light is too powerful
It holds you, it moulds you, envelops, enfolds you in warm embrace
Just one little bit, just one little hit, a tiny taste

You're addicted to the lime light
Addicted to the time right
When nobody is looking at anything but you
Addicted to the front page
Addicted to the center stage 
Cause nothing can compete
Nothing tastes as sweet as
Lime

Your guts keep on churning your eyes they are burning to see a thing
Your breath has escaped your hands start to shake, your ears just ring
The doubts start to creep in your feet are asleep and you start to pray
But as it begins the rest of your sins just melt away

Cause you're addicted to the lime light
Addicted to the time right
When nobody is looking at anything but you
Addicted to the front page
Addicted to the center stage 
Cause nothing can compete
Nothing tastes as sweet

And it might feel like hell
And you're not doing well
But the final chord swells 
Well they're
On their feet 
Dancing in the street
Cause nothing can compete
No nothing tastes as sweet
As lime
