Coming Down

After all you
put me through
there's no way I can save you
these purple pills
got nothing on me
but you'll never see
and your high is coming down

oh the way your words bruise
stinging and infecting old wounds
you kiss the bottle and push me away
stop my heart till its cold and gray
you're not the man I once knew
no I dont love you

After all you 

put me through

there's no way I can save you

these purple pills

got nothing on me

but you'll never see

and your high is coming down

alcohol breath when we talk

blow our money on a lump of rock

I know better I should leave

I cant break your hold on me

I feel you creeping into bed

and hear the demons screaming in your head

After all you 

put me through

there's no way I can save you

these purple pills

got nothing on me

but you'll never see

and your high is coming down

Why do you do what you do to me

that empty bottle more enticing than me

I cant save you from yourself

sorry honey I have to get out

After all you 

put me through

there's no way I can save you

these purple pills

got nothing on me

but you'll never see

and your high is coming down
