[Verse 1]
Chased your high like sunrise
Shaking hands
Blurred phone light
Every kiss a quick fix
Every touch another tick
Late nights
Teeth grit
Jaw locked
Heart skips
Veins twitch
Mind shocked
You said “breathe
It’s just us”
But I’m dope-sick from your trust
[Chorus]
What is love?
Just the cruelest drug
Take a hit
Then you pull the plug
You’re the rush that I can’t outrun
(yeah, yeah)
What is love?
You’re the worst of me
Overdosed on a fantasy
I keep crawling back on bloody knees
For one more taste of you
[Verse 2]
I quit twice this weekend
Deleted you
Then relapsed
Cold sweat on clean sheets
Hallucinating your laugh
Friends say I should detox
But you live in my detox
Your ghost in my bloodstream
Every blink a new scene
[Chorus]
What is love?
Just the cruelest drug
Take a hit
Then you pull the plug
You’re the rush that I can’t outrun
(hey!)
What is love?
You’re the worst of me
Overdosed on a fantasy
I keep crawling back on bloody knees
For one more taste of you
[Bridge]
Cut the cord
You still drip in my veins
Every scar
Spells out your name
Swear I’m done
Till you call again
I’m your fix
You’re my dead end
[Chorus]
What is love?
Just the cruelest drug
Take a hit
Then you pull the plug
You’re the rush that I can’t outrun
(woah)
What is love?
You’re the worst of me
Overdosed on a fantasy
If this is healing
Let me bleed
I’ll die chasing the truth
Of one more taste of you
