Drugged Love
Light me up like a cigarette
You bring up memories I can't forget
I loved you, gave you everything I could
And in the end, you misunderstood
The things I do for you
The things I'd say
Honey I'd gotten so used to living that way
I can't shake you
Like a bad taste in my mouth
You're bad for me boy
This is gonna head south
Your love is a drug
Your mind is a mess
I can't quit you
You're worse than meth
So believe me when I say
That this isnt the end
Because there's no use
In trying to pretend
That you didn't love me
Because you did
Oh please
Who am I trying to kid?
You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
But what else
Are two messed up people to do?
Your love is a drug
Your mind is a mess
I'm more mucked up than you
But I digress
The things you say
Get to me so
Even when you hurt me
I keep coming back for more
I can't help myself
I lose control
When I'm around you
I'm not myself anymore
Your love is a drug
Your mind is a mess
Baby I can't quit you
God, you're worse than death
So believe me when I say
That I don't want this to end
Because you're like
My personal brand of heroin
Believe me when I say
I'm okay
Even though I'm not
Cause when I'm around you
You make my skin burn hot
Your love was a drug
My mind is now a mess
Christ, get out of my life
You’re gonna cause my death.
