Slaves - Downing In My Addiction Lyrics






What a crying shame
I can't escape these haunted hallways
The ghost of myself
And everything I love
And pushed away

Come hell or come high water
I'm miserable as sin
And this position I find myself in
It's never dead
Oh, so they say

Talk of the devil and he will appear
Burdens so heavy everyday it becomes more clear
Drowning in my addiction
Drowning in my addiction

I try and stand strong but I always give in
Wish I could escape myself
This evil intent, evil intent
To kill what I love

Come hell or come high water
I'm miserable as sin
And this position I find myself in
It's never dead
Oh, so they say

Talk of the devil and he will appear
Burdens so heavy everyday it becomes more clear
Drowning in my addiction
Drowning in my addiction

This vicious cycle comes full circle
But I'm still here
And I never knew love
Cause happiness is fair
Cause happiness is fair
So they say

Talk of the devil and he will appear
Burdens so heavy everyday it becomes more clear
Drowning in my addiction
Drowning in my addiction

  1. _.... J....

    Bruhh you can hear the emotion in Jonny's voice glad he doing better 🙏💯 now

  2. S.... ....

    God it would sound so much better without drum samples

  3. J.... T....

    2:06-2:23🔥

  4. B.... ....

    Guess Jonny is back to drowning.

  5. T.... ....

    Found this song on accident and love it

  6. K.... ....

    jonny's voice omg

  7. M.... L....

    Thanks to Eskimo Callboy who introduced me to this amazing band with one of the most talented lead singers I've ever heard live🤘

  8. T.... K....

    cash me outside how ba dat?

  9. C.... ....

    When I first played this, I thought it was Sleeping with Sirens from the first couple of seconds

    C.... ....

    Me too. I had to go back and look at what I clicked.... I still love them though

  10. C.... O....

    Jonny is Slave's.

  11. p.... s....

    Every time I hear his voice, it's equal to getting a lotion covered hand rubbin muh junk

  12. C.... W....

    Get clean Johnny ffs you were doing so good

  13. K.... R....

    guys someone tell me I'm not the only one who noticed that when this album was first released, this song was titled "Downing in my Addiction" and not "Drowning in my Addiction" on Spotify

  14. J.... M....

    iTunes has this song listed as "Downing In My Addiction" lol

  15. K.... T....

    think's cool......

  16. A.... P....

    The chorus reminds me of a Rise Against riff.

  17. M.... ....

    I'm so I excited about finding a band like them I'm jumping around my room they're so fukin cool uh ma gawd!!!!! 😆😆😆😆😆

  18. J.... B....

    Alot of people hate on the singer. The big H vice will make you do things you would never do sober in a million years. These lyrics hit home very closely with me. Keep doing your thing Jonny!

  19. j.... s....

    OMG! THE OPENING GAVE ME SHIVERS!!!!!

  20. J.... S....

    Great track, definitely happy with this album :')

  21. F.... K....

    Is i "Drowning" or "Downing"? Cause it says "Downing" in the title on Spotify :O

  22. U.... ....

    The second best band in the world with the name "Slaves"

  23. A.... H....

    @Taryn Thompson i really like that album too, but I just started listening to their new music.

  24. T.... T....

    Only song I'm digging from their new released stuff ;/ Through Art We're All Equals is still doing it for me.

  25. A.... F....

    What can i say. Good song, but i miss punch. Sounds like its recordet at a semi-proffesional home studio and worked to mutch With effects on a computer. Its kind of flat. As i have heard by more and more bands recently. I know studio time is expensive. But sometimes it's Worth it. I would even pay kickstarter for slaves to get a really good studio for recording...

  26. A.... D....

    why yall listen to this soft shit, chief keef is way better then this high ass voiced nigga

    A.... D....

    +Aiyannah Davis you mam are a dumb fucking bitch

    A.... D....

    +Aiyannah Davis who the fuck bitches about a "rap god" on a fucking rock song? chief keef? the fuck is that? listen to JMT , Joe Budden, Tsu surf, Vinnie paz, slaughterhouse, crooked I, Royce da 5'9 , Joel Ortiz I can go on and on smfh at a chief keef

    A.... D....

    This bitch here saying that this garbage is better than a "high ass voiced nigga". Bitch you listen to Sleeping with Sirens shut the fuck up lmao

    A.... D....

    @Hunter McClendon who u referring bout

    A.... D....

    Aiyannah. She's trolling niggas saying her music taste is superb. It's so bad that it makes me cut myself like her emo friends.

  27. J.... C....

    On some next level shit Jonny...

  28. G.... S....

    Should've stuck to Kris Crummett :/ Cameron Mizell isn't doing them justice. Normally really love his mixes but it's just not as good of quality.

    G.... S....

    +Ganymede Studios I agree

  29. T.... A....

    This is fucking great.

  30. T.... W....

    I'm Loving the new songs so far, but does Jonny's voice sound deeper in this than it usually is

    T.... W....

    At one point he reaches an A4, the A above middle c which is pretty high for a male voice.

  31. B.... ....

    I love Jonny's voice, but this mix kills this song for me, for example the drums are so powerless.

    B.... ....

    @BL1224RD Live, This is gonna be amazing tho

  32. D.... D....

    This is so good. Can't wait for the album.

  33. J.... ....

    So pumped to hear the rest of this album!

  34. x.... ....

    This album is more energetic than the first.  Enjoying the diversity of songs as well.

  35. N.... ....

    I could say I hate this; but I'd only be lying to myself.

  36. W.... J....

    This is amazing.

  37. b.... ....

    Favorite song so far on the new cd! Love it

  38. D.... N....

    This sounds very good! I may have to go but the album.

  39. A.... M....

    boring af

  40. C.... B....

    Why don't they show up on Iheartradio?

  41. P.... M....

    when he sang "I never see the end" why appears in the video "it's never dead"

    P.... M....

    I believe it was to save time they just repeated the same section. It does it on the chorus at the end, Jonny sings so clear instead of more clear, but rather than remake a section it was just reused to save time making the video

  42. R.... ....

    increíble

  43. J.... M....

    on repeat

  44. L.... A....

    Omg yass!! Just what I needed

  45. K.... T....

    algum brasileiro?

    K.... T....

    @Karol Tavares aqui o/

    K.... T....

    +Lucca Alves até que fim algum brasileirooo, de bom gosto. sabe quando sai o álbum completo?

    K.... T....

    Dia 21 agora

    K.... T....

    @Karol Tavares Dia 21 agora

    K.... T....

    Sou brasileiro tb

  46. V.... ....

    this is what I figured a theoretical relativity part 2 would sound like

    V.... ....

    Chill....

    V.... ....

    @jamar harden TAWAAE was basically the dumbed down, generic-chugging sequel to Emarosa self-titled. This so far just sounds like a cleaned up and slightly better version of TAWAAE.

  47. N.... S....

    Why the fuck is this not in my mailbox yet!?!?!

  48. A.... ....

    Jonny's vox sound so much more full force in this track! Loving it so much!

  49. k.... ....

    The intro sounds exactly like Secrets

    k.... ....

    @kylerknows Oh man I thought that right away haha.

    k.... ....

    +kylerknows yeah, I know. It sounds a bit like Heartbreak Kids.

    k.... ....

    Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed

    k.... ....

    +Tr1ppy b3ard Always has to be one lol. No-one was saying who was better or not. It's obvious you are just a hater. Of course the clean vocalist of Slaves is more known by far, and has always been a great vocalist. But to say Secrets sucks live is bullshit. The clean vocalist they have is a great vocalist.

    k.... ....

    do y'all remember the time a user named tr1ppy b3ard tried to act holier than thou and more mature than another user on a jonny craig video

  50. N.... W....

    Emarosa replace this on Blessthefall tour.
    Pour kids, they missed a lot

  51. N.... W....

    Emarosa replace this on Blessthefall tour.
    Pour kids, they missed a lot

  52. N.... N....

    ого, этот трек даже лучше  двух предыдущих.
    забираю себе.

  53. S.... W....

    Ship "Routine Breathing" already... <3

  54. H.... ....

    Okay yeah, This is DEFINITELY an improvement to their sound!!! It's much better than TAWAAE. Not saying that it's awful or that I hate those who admire it. I just prefer more of this!

  55. J.... X....

    "this vicious cycle always comes full circle 
    but I'm still here"

  56. g.... ....

    This new album is slowly but surely taking out the last one!

  57. T.... T....

    FUCK YEAH BABY LES GOO

  58. k.... ....

    niceyyy like the vibes

  59. T.... ....

    if your gonna do a lyrics video at least get them right 0:34 should be put not find.

    T.... ....

    @TheComment2011 it says *find* in the lyrics, despite the fact of what you hear

    T.... ....

    @TheComment2011 you're high bruh.

    T.... ....

    @TheComment2011 Your musical ears are to what Stevie Wonder's eyes are to scenery. This is your queue to give up.

  60. N.... c....

    such yes.

  61. A.... G....

    The best of you so far!

  62. C.... ....

    Jonny's voice is so wonderful. which makes it more and more depressing every time he puts out something with sub par instrumentals and lyrics

    C.... ....

    @Charminions Any sources? I'm almost 100% sure he wrote all of his lyrics in Emarosa, so I would assume he would've done the same in DGD.

    C.... ....

    @DrumsAndMetal There are some instrumental parts that aren't bad, but the production is awful imo. I also can't stand the drum samples, which was a problem I had with Through Art We Are All Equals.

    C.... ....

    Sadly, I agree. The band is very boring and repetitive. But Jonny's voice is still magical, and some of his lyrics still have that dark quality from his time in Emarosa. For example, " I never knew love, because Happiness is fair".

    C.... ....

    @winter jonny didnt write lyrics im dgd or emarosa lol

  63. K.... W....

    Yay!!! I love you guys!

  64. A.... A....

    wat about the lyrics for Death Never Lets Us Say Goodbye

    A.... A....

    All I asked was Artery post the lyrics to Death Never Lets Us Say Goodbye ._.

    A.... A....

    @Aviv Orenstein lol. so what did you think of death never now that u heard it? :)

    A.... A....

    @***** they're wrong though

    A.... A....

    @***** Every site has them listed wrong, too bad. 

    A.... A....

    @***** Hope so.

  65. C.... ....

    sounds fucking amazing! i mean except that shitty ass annoying snare sound but yeah! good shit foreal

  66. G.... O....

    😍😍😍😍😍👏👏👏👏👏
    Slaves is the best band ever

  67. M.... R....

    Yes finally.!! I love the song and can't wait for the album to come out

  68. J.... R....

    I just learned about Johnny Craig two years ago from my girlfriend, amazing fucking vocalist and keeps getting better with every album he puts out

    J.... R....

    Listen to all his older stuff too. It's even better.

    J.... R....

    Ehhhh, his DGD run was decent, but his voice was nowhere near this

    J.... R....

    It actually sounds like his voice is finally withering.

    J.... R....

    +Nick Luciano lol What... His range was much higher back then.

  69. C.... ....

    Pretty sick I like the poppy sound to it

  70. A.... W....

    holy fuck, this band as a whole has gotten so much better.

  71. t.... ....

    I'm so fucking happy omfg
