My life reached its pinnacle when I first met you
Who knew you’d be the one to
Set me free, release me from this pain
Who knew you’d give me back my wings, the ones that broke
Turned into smoke
I see, I finally see what I’ve been missing from my life
You and me
Romantic tragedy
You make me fall into the ground
Face first
But gradually pick me up, no sudden sound
You whisper in my ear, tell me you love me.

You’re the drug that sent me into rehab
The one they tried to take away
But this heart won’t settle down
I’m standing in an empty town
Waiting for you to just take my hand
Remove me from this dirty pavement.
Searching for the drug that got away.


Your eyes hypnotic,
Mesmerizing more than ever
Your scent lingers when you leave.
Please don’t forget December
A time u should remember
Because we kissed under the pouring rain
The butterflies turned into pain…

You’re the drug that sent me into rehab
The one they tried to take away
But this heart won’t settle down
I’m standing in an empty town
Waiting for you to just take my hand
Remove me from this dirty pavement.
Searching for the drug that got away.

Your voice, music to my ears
Your touch, removes my childish fears
I knew you’d always leave
But I never wanted to believe it
So I held on…tightly
Now your gone.
You kill me softly

You’re the drug that sent me into rehab
The one they tried to take away
But this heart won’t settle down
You found me on that dirty pavement
You took my hand
Ran away from this dirty town
We kissed under the moonlight
Till the sunlight
Now please, just…stay
