The Harmless Drug That Killed Me

I once had a love
it wasn't like any other.
It was so sweet, so sincere, like you were my brother
My love had to be better than any drink
It was stronger than any drug,
This boy was oh just so addicting though

All the sleep I've lost
and all the blood it has cost
Every second I think of you
How does it feel now?
Was it ever really worth it,
I strongly disagree
Pain was the only thing we got
You are the harmless drug that killed me

My friends all knew what bad news you were
but I ignored them all, blew them off all for you
You used to love me, you used to hug me
Why did it have to end like this?
Does it make you happy,
seeing how miserable you can make me?

All the sleep I've lost
and all the blood that it has cost
The seconds are getting shorter
there is no time to waste
But all the time I spent with you proves that
So I guess you already know
You could make me happy, skip around with glee,
too late for that,
You are the harmless drug that killed me

Now you may ask, why did I bother?
Because I loved him that is why
He was so strong and painful but he took my breath away
but you see it only brought me here to cry
I don't understand why love is so blind,
so painful, can't it all just disappear?
Maybe I could say it wasn’t love
Too bad I don’t lie

All the sleep I've lost
and all the pain that it has cost
What was I missing?
I know something was wrong
I think about it all the time
simply wondering what it could be
I'll keep thinking about it in my life of death
because you are the harmless drug that killed me

Time races by,
its not like it matters anyway
the one I could escape to is gone,
life is all work now there is no time for play
I used to be like a slave
I would have done anything for you
But now its over and that is no longer true
Razor blades and knives will eventually heal
But you are not like them,
Your pain is real.

All the sleep that I've lost
and all of the blood that it has cost
Everyone warned me
I can't deny that
I almost lost a great friend
Would you have been happier then?
I feel like I dont even know you
All you did was act sweet
I don’t think you ever told me your story
Of why you came to be
Sure I know how and when
But were you meant to be with me?
From all of our pain I can tell you no
I hope you can accept that,
I really hope you do

All of the sleep I have lost
and all the blood that it has cost
I keep asking myself, and I'm wondering why
Why was it like this?
Why did it have to be?
Ah yes, now I remember,
because your the harmless drug that killed me
