I've shared your love
I've shared it everytime I felt hollow
With the way my lips were touched it'd be impossible to swallow
But then a bottle of emotions drowned with my thoughts
The way it's all empty, the way the sudden goodbyes made me feel so numb
I lie there pretending to be okay as these sleeping pills make me feel so awake
Maybe another pill might take the edge off.
I look at her eyes as if they saw my prescription
Diagnosed love failure, happens more than once a day
Then I've realized I've overdosed off of her smiles and touch
I'd a gave my life to those bottles
A sip of desire, one shot of pleasure.
But a dose of our toxic habits and goodbyes.
Sorry love, you don't get to worry about my addictions anymore.
I ruined it....remember?
