What once we believed
to be so glorious and freeing's
just a crutch
and in retrospect the good times
that we've had don't seem so worth it
when I'm wakin' up in cold sweat
shakin' on some stranger's white leather couch
with a head full of regrets
I've made up my bed
now i guess it's time to sleep
swaddled up in sterile white sheets
I'm losin' touch
Little blue pills
to help me sleep
don't like my life
so i take seven when i drink
wake up in the AM
still shakin' from the mayhem
with the door off of its hinge
Call me lady vodka
there's only three tears I can shed
weary and broken
but just can't rest well in this bed
ink stained carpets
and stolen cars
I gave you everything
and all you gave me were these scars
i fucking hate you
i fucking hate you
goddamn i love you
goddamn i love you
but we both know if we ever
stick together
we'll just tear ourselves apart
You are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
but the skies are grey
you are my heroin
but there's an abscess
goddamn me missed the vein
She's scratchin'' her pen
through the pages in her notebook
scratching' the blade of her knife
into her hip
(at least they're hidden)
a quarter of our lives gone by
knees nailed to the ground
begging for more
Forcin' that needle in his vein
forcin' that liquor down his throat
(well that's just how i cope)
quarter of our lives gone by
knees nailed to the ground
begging for more
CHORUS
