Painkillers

Intro

Her body is my prescription............I MIGHT JUST OVERDOSE..................

Verse

When I’m with you, all the noise in my head go silent

Your perfume hit the room, now my demons moving quiet

I drink your body like red wine, slow sip, no chase

One kiss from you erase the whole world off my face

You lay your hands on my chest like you know where it hurt

Then I pull you in close, trying to bury that dirt

I swear it feel like love when your skin on mine

But I’m scared I’m using you to run from time

You give me peace, you give me heat, you give me somewhere to hide

You give me that kind of high I can’t find outside

And when you whisper my name, I forget what broke me

But deep down I know I’m still bleeding slowly

Hook

Painkillers in your kiss, red wine on your lips

Perfume got me hypnotized every time you dip

I say it’s love, but I know I’m running too

Girl, I need your body just to make it through

You numb what I can’t face when the lights go low

But when you leave, I feel the ache in my soul

I’m addicted to your touch, but I’m scared what it means

You my painkiller, baby… but you don’t heal me

Verse

I hate that I love you like something I need

Like you only exist when I’m trying not to bleed

You give me your heart, I turn it into a prescription

Then wonder why you cry when I call it addiction

That ain’t fair to you, baby, I know that it’s selfish

You touch all my wounds, but I still don’t let you help it

I pull you close when the memories attack

Then act like I’m whole when I’m really still cracked

You deserve more than a man on the run

More than late-night love when the damage is done

I say I love you, and God knows I mean it

But I’m guilty of needing your body to treat it

Bridge

Baby, I confess, I been loving you wrong

Using your body as a place I can hide when I’m not strong

You ain’t a cure for scars I never let breathe

And I hate that I put all that weight on you and me

You deserve me in the daylight, not just after dark

Not just late-night healing when I’m running from my scars

So if you stay, I’ma face what I run from

No more making your love do what healing should’ve done

Hook

Painkillers in your kiss, red wine on your lips

Perfume got me hypnotized every time you dip

I say it’s love, but I know I’m running too

Girl, I need your body just to make it through

You numb what I can’t face when the lights go low

But when you leave, I feel the ache in my soul

I’m addicted to your touch, but I’m scared what it means

You my painkiller, baby… but you don’t heal me.............
