The Pills

Here we go again
The calls always come in
At 2 AM
Why do I always let him win?

Just call me a pill
Lonely boy feels unwell and
I'm his prescription to fill
Somehow I always pay the bill

I tell myself
Don't give in to his delusion
Can't replace his antidepressants
Walk away before you stand in the quicksand of a man
But I can't
Here we go again

Oh, he knows I will
Keep the world still
But I'm not love, I'm a drug
There go the pills
Oh, I'm just a slave
For being something to crave
I know I shouldn't but still
There go the pills

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills

How mad his doctor would be
If only she-e-e knew
The doses he takes of me
Inconsistently

And it kills me, it kills me to be temporary
In his bloodstream
I want to stay but it's true, thought he'd change but I knew
I thought he'd change but I knew
That's what users do

Oh, he knows I will
Keep the world still
But I'm not love, I'm a drug
There go the pills
Oh, I'm just a slave
For being something to crave
I know I shouldn't but still
There go the pills
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills

This is how it ends, I refuse to bend
No more chances left, this is how it ends
This is how it ends, I refuse to bend
No more chances left, this is how it ends
But I want to be, still, his love his drug his pill
Oh, I crave it still
There go the pills

Oh, he knows I will
Keep the world still
But I'm not love, I'm a drug
There go the pills
Oh, I'm just a slave
For being something to crave
I know I shouldn't but still
There go the pills

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
There go the pills
