It's the look in your eyes That keeps me alive Feel the knots in my stomach Tied up so tight It's what keeps my heart beating A perfect narcotic I just had a taste And now I can't stop it I'm hooked on this feeling Of life clear and free Like oxygen that fills my lungs You're the air I breathe Although some people object I know this is what I need They can point their fingers all they want It will never bother me Will you be there with me when I hit the dirt? Will you be there with me so I don't get hurt? Will you be there with me when I take the fall? With you right by my side I'll survive it all Twisting and spitting up Stains on the carpet Shaking and clasping my Hands in the darkness I smash all the mirrors In hopes of catharsis And pick up the shards To slit both of my wrists It's what keeps my heart beating The perfect narcotic I just had a taste And now I can't stop it I hear my phone ringing And I stop to breathe My parents are worried They've called the police I come to my senses And fall to my knees Then everything goes black And I start to seize Neurons misfire And I start to convulse You're the last thing I see As my head hits the floor Will you be there with me when I hit the dirt? Will you be there with me so I don't get hurt? Will you be there with me when I take the fall? With you right by my side I'll survive it all Cuz now I'm strung out, broke, and I'm a mess Full of these thoughts I can't express Cuz my lexicon is limited These melodies are all stolen From some song you played a year ago We were in your car, it was soft and low It moved me in a special way I turned and saw tears on your face You told me all your greatest dreams And your darkest fears and what they mean I felt so safe there in your arms I never thought we would grow apart Now the memories all fade away As the Chemicals evaporate And you'll return to who you were And I'll just learn to be ok
