Your Simply Amazing Stuck in My Head Song of the Day

I'm not sure why this song came to me today, I mean I wasn't online shopping...too much. The how doesn't matter that much, what does is that it is a fantastic song. It's "Not An Addict" by K's Choice and when I first got it from one of my friend's mixes it was mislabeled as a Jane's Addiction song, which kinda makes sense, it being about addiction and the singer sounding like Perry Farrell. But either way the lyrics are just so ethereal and this is one of those songs that I find myself singing often at random times

Breathe it in and breathe it out
And pass it on, it's almost out
We're so creative, so much more
We're high above but on the floor

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side

The deeper you stick it in your vein
The deeper the thoughts, there's no more pain
I'm in heaven, I'm a god
I'm everywhere, I feel so high

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

It's over now, I'm cold, alone
I'm just a person on my own
Nothing means a thing to me
(Nothing means a thing to me)

It's not a habit, it's cool, I feel alive
If you don't have it you're on the other side
I'm not an addict (maybe that's a lie)

Free me, leave me
Watch me as I'm going down
Free me, see me
Look at me, I'm falling and I'm falling.

It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive I feel...
It is not a habit, it is cool I feel alive


Though I've never been addicted to anything (I've tried) this song feels real, like the rationaliztions that an addict would make but it also seems to trace the high and come down and subsequent pursuit of the white horse. And plus I love the bridge when the vocals soar for a moment while singing "Free Me, Leave Me..." and the line "I'm in heaven, I'm a god" is just golden. Over the course of writing this post Not An Addict has been elevated in my mind to "Simply Amazing." (what an honor)
So enjoy Your Simply Amazing Stuck in My Head Song of The Day- Not An Addict by K's Choice (the video is only half of the 8 minute listed time, fyi.ok?)
