lyrics

So the letters were right
I stayed up, almost all night
Can't you tell how I've tried
With empty bottles by the table side

Broken spine
Healed up fine
When I came around
You already out

Bottle up the words
This is just absurd
Not again
It breaks the skin
All the other pain
Never went away
I'm swallowing my words again
Orange tinted grief
Never gave relief
This is what I thought it was
I always thought you'd be
Happier with me
Not again

Prescription? Me?
Prescription? Me?
Prescription? Me?
Prescription? Me?

Broken spine
Healed up fine
And when I came around
You were already out

And it all makes sense
How i failed in the end
No time to think
I can't fix me...
..so I'm told
These feelings I will never know?
.....ya

Did you ever think of me?
You know you drained me out entirely
And all the promises I never keep
I guess relationships have fleeted me

Bottle up the words
This is just absurd
Not again
It breaks the skin
All the other pain
Never went away
I'm swallowing my words again
Orange tinted grief
Never gave relief
This is what I thought it was
I always thought you'd be
Happier with me
Not again

Prescription? Me?
PRESCRIPTION? ME?
