Broken Heart For Hire

Prescription pills help pass the time
Pretty good at pretending that I'm fine
You can see the pain behind my eyes
But I'm breathing

Now it takes a little more to get me by
I fell further than before to chase your high
Don't know anymore, and I don't know why
But you're leaving

But Imma need a little weed and a drink from the bottle
Couple them, couple these just to get through tomorrow
Cause they damn near killed me watching you drive away
But hey

I've been looking for something to take your place
Help me wash down this bitter taste
Uppers and downers, I'm drowning in fire
Looks like another all-nighter
And now your love drug don't work the same
Cause I've been crossing lines with this cocaine

Running blind on down to the wire
At an all-time low with a broken heart for hire

Can't blame it on the amphetamines
Lied a thousand times, tried getting clean
Now I'm still shaking
You're the reason my heart's breaking, baby
These clouds are made from sticky green
These skies pour on the remedy while the bar's still open
My only fear is hearing last call

I've been looking for something to take your place
Help me wash down this bitter taste
Uppers and downers, I'm drowning in fire
Looks like another all-nighter
And now your love drug don't work the same
Cause I've been crossing lines with this cocaine

Running blind on down to the wire
At an all-time low with a broken heart for hire

I wish that I could feel something that was real
Overdosing on the potion, but you know I'm just trying to heal

Cause I've been looking for something to take your place
Help me wash down this bitter taste
Uppers and downers, I'm drowning in fire
Looks like another all-nighter
And now your love drug don't work the same
Cause I've been crossing lines with this cocaine

Running blind on down to the wire
At an all-time low with a broken heart for hire
