lyrics

I could never let you go
With your hands around my throat
Say you need someone else
To save you from yourself

Call me at 3am
Just to say we were never meant
But that you once were the one
Who held me close beneath a glaring sun

Then you looked at me with your bloodshot eyes and yelled that you feel alone
Then I disappear to become my fear of always staying ghost

You were heaven sent
You're my medicine
So sweet and poisonous
I'll swallow you whole till I die

Now I can't speak to you
Without a can in my hand to soothe
All the feelings I locked up inside
And will keep there until I die

Remember when you dressed all in red
The same night that you wished me dead
With the lights shining bright in our eyes
We finally had an excuse to cry

Then you looked at me with your bloodshot eyes and yelled that you feel alone
Then I disappear to become my fear of always staying ghost

You were heaven sent
You're my medicine
So sweet and poisonous
