Lyrics
They don't make enough aspirin for the pain
The fruit of the vine wasn't working the same
I remember kissing you and holding hands
Now I'm just pissing memories down the drain
Can't you see the salt in my eyes?
I could pretend, but it'd be a lie
Chorus:
Stop what you're doing to my hear
Baby can't you see you tear it apart
And about to raise up the white flag
Because I wanna change
Verse:
Girl I still love you and I hope you love me
Throw down your arms and let's forge a treaty
I know your evil eye and your thousand yard stare
I want back your sweet smile with your long dark hair
Can't you hear the hurt in my voice?
Wish I could go, but I got no choice
Chorus:
And the venom spilled from her teeth and lips
On a sea of shame I've been set adrift
Now she won't hear my cry, or she don't hear my cry
And I told you that I was tough
But I lied
Chorus:
