Rehab

I'm in rehab
 Cuz I gotta get away from my drug
 It did me wrong 
 And took me down for way too long
 
 I loved it so much
 And still do
 But I gotta get away
 
 I was so addicted
 people could see my pain
 But I thought I was fine
 That everything would be all right
 
 My drug
 Abused me
 And used me
 And I just hoped it would change
 
 I thought you would protect me
 But you were the one that hurt me
 I thought you would keep me safe
 But you were the one killing me inside
 
 You should be illegal
 You made me lose my mind
 It's so hard to sleep
 When I know
 you're still walkin these streets
 
 Why did I take you for so long?
 Why did i think I was so strong? 
 To be able to take you
 It's messed up my life
 Cuz I wasted so much time on you
 
 Thats why your my drug
 I wanted you
 Even though you weren't good for me
 And I couldn't see it
 Cuz I was trapped
 In your love
 
 Now I need rehab
 To learn to live without you
 I need to learn to be happy again
 My body is callin for you
 My heart is screaming your name
 But you dont hear me
 Cuz I'm in rehab
 
 My body is shakin
 Cuz it's used to you
 I'm learning how to eat
 I'm learning how to sleep
 And just be myself 
 
 In rehab
 You learn to deal 
 With the pain
 And even though it hurts
 You see
 Youre not the only one in the rain
 
 So I know I can get through this
 Gotta pull myself up
 And kick this
 No more shots
 No more drugs
 Time to heal
 And finally be free

 You don't wanna lose my love
 But I don't wanna lose my life
 You're a bad habit
 That i need To break
 Please let me go
 Please stop trying
 I need to go
