I dont think i can ever look at love the same After hearing the way he spoke about me When he was high It was a messy, twisted kind of love Fueled by opiates and ******* Lsd and pain. He drug me down into it with him, A line here a tab there, “Are you sure you don;t want Half of this pill?” I begged him to stop, But i think i’ll be happier If he never finds love Until he;s sober again Because then no one Will ever get that special part of him i had I know i fell in love with the drugs Fell in love with how they made him act Fell in love with how he was so in awe That i wasn’t against them When he knew my past. I ended up loving the effects The drugs had on me too. The clammy hands, the stuffy noses, The unending exhaustion, I developed a dependency on the short Bursts of serotonin they gave me. And i hate myself for it. Sometimes i wonder if i was happier. I know i’m better off, theoretically. In a relationship not dependent on Psychedelics to keep it functioning. A new job, a new start, Hopefully soon a new home too, But the nostalgia hits, And i am forced to remember what life was like When i was in the midst of loving the drugs.

loving the drugs
I dont think i can ever look at love the same After hearing the way he spoke about me When he was high It was a messy, twisted kind of love Fueled by opiates and ******* Lsd and pain. He drug me down into it with him, A line here a tab there, “Are you sure you don;t want Half of this pill?” I begged him to stop, But i think i’ll be happier If he never finds love Until he;s sober again Because then no one Will ever get that special part of him i had I know i fell in love with the drugs Fell in love with how they made him act Fell in love with how he was so in awe That i wasn’t against them When he knew my past. I ended up loving the effects The drugs had on me too. The clammy hands, the stuffy noses, The unending exhaustion, I developed a dependency on the short Bursts of serotonin they gave me. And i hate myself for it. Sometimes i wonder if i was happier. I know i’m better off, theoretically. In a relationship not dependent on Psychedelics to keep it functioning. A new job, a new start, Hopefully soon a new home too, But the nostalgia hits, And i am forced to remember what life was like When i was in the midst of loving the drugs.
