You told me
I was your drug
And it made my heart swell
To think I might have been
That important to you

But then the need began
And it warped itself
Into an addiction
And I realized
That drugs killed
And I feared
This love would kill
And the anger tore through you
Like morphine through veins
And words sharper
Than shards of glass
Exploded in my face
And you left bruises on my mind
And bruises on my heart
And bruises on my body
And now I'm in a corner
And the sharp words have become sharp items
And the blood drips down my face
And mingles with my tears
And I can't escape your addiction
Because I'm just as addicted to you
As you are to me
