lyrics

The drugs aren't working
And I'm afraid I've gone too far
Don't know what you see
When you look at me
The struggle or the scar

Broken hearts and pills
And all the things they leave behind
Like rusted, ruined dreams
In the corners of my mind

Ten little pills
Tucked safe down in my pocket
Like a faded, timeworn photo
In a golden locket

The drugs are kickin' in
And it feels good to go too far
Don't care what you see
When you look at me
Passed out at the bar

Broken hearts and pills
And all the things they leave behind
Like rusted, ruined dreams
In the corners of my mind

Nobody loves me
Quite like you do
Caressing my veins
'Til my lips turn blue

I used to long
For someone affectionate
Now I spend my nights
In the arms of an opiate

The drugs've got me reeling
And I know I've gone too far
Tell me what you see
When you look at me
Rueful, brash and scarred

Broken hearts and pills
And all the things they leave behind
Like rusted, ruined dreams
In the corners of my mind
