He smokes all those ******* cigarettes. All of them every ******* day I don't know what makes him think he can smoke the sadness away But boy, does he try, He tries so **** hard.
He tries to blind his demons by fogging his mind He comes to me high, saying he can't feel a thing And I say I know what you mean, boy, I know what you mean But you can't chase away the pain with drugs and a drink He doesn't always need to be so tough I wonder if I could make him forget I wonder if my love could be enough
How can something so broken make me feel so beautiful? He takes a party mix of pharmacuticals, he's ready to self destruct Balancing between living and dying I've never seen someone more on the cusp God, how I wish I could make him happy I wonder if my love could be enough
But I'm just part of his problem ******* up his emotions even more than they were It's like setting fire to a train wreck and I'm the instigator Putting my flames to his propane, maybe a raging fire is the cure
He tells me he needs some space So I back up a considerable amount and yell if it's enough But he just whispers back You'll never be able to fix me It can't be done I'm too far gone Nothing can fix me, not even love
