I am that pill you take
When you can't get to sleep
When your skin crawls and itches
And you start to scratch until you bleed.
I am that person
With a need to fix your everything Despite what it takes from me.
I would give of me all there is.
But I am a pill
A drug
An addiction
One that's always been hard to break.
I'm sweet to swallow
But don't forget that bitter after taste.
And when there is nothing left of me to give
I’ll go
And you’ll be left to your fever dreams
Because really I didn’t fix anything.
You just used me like a bandaid...
