All alone in the still of my apartment.

D-double take, apparitions in the darkness

Oh, oh, oh.



There you are

I'm a fiend

I gotta have it

Need a fix, my dangerous habit

Oh, oh, oh.



You are my gateway drug

You pull me down

You mess me up

You are my gateway drug

You give me a taste for the harder stuff

And I don't wanna stop



Innocent, I was naive when we started.

Got so high 

We descended to dependence

(Quitting is so hard)

Cold sweat, I'm shaking with my teeth clenched

Appetite for the rush, the thrill, I need it.

Oh oh oh.



You are my gateway drug

You pull down

You mess me up

You are my gateway drug

You give me a a taste for the harder stuff

And I don't wanna stop

No, I don't wanna stop



You're breathing on my neck

And I feel weak

The lights that burn my eyes play hide and seek

I get a little closer to you

You move a little closer to me



All alone in the still of my apartment

D-double take, apparitions in the darkness



I lose myself in you



You are my gateway drug

You pull me down

You fuck me up

You are my gateway drug

You give me a taste for the harder stuff

You are my gateway drug

(I can't tell when I've had enough)

You are my gateway drug

(Drag me down to a deeper love)

I don't wanna stop

No, I don't wanna stop

I don't wanna stop
