my heroine

The drugs begin to peakA smile of joy arrives in meBut sedation changes to panic and nauseaAnd breath starts to shortenAnd heartbeats pound softerYou won't try to save meYou just want to hurt meAnd leave me desperateYou taught my heartA sense I never knew I hadI can't forgetThe times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truthHow do you do it?You're my heroineYou won't leave me aloneChisel my heart out of stoneI give in everytimeYou taught my heartA sense I never knew I hadI can't forgetThe times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truthHow do you do it?You're my heroineI bet you laugh At the thought of me thinking for myself (myself)I bet you believe (bet you believe)That I'm better off with you than someone elseYour face arrives againAll hope I had becomes surrealBut under your coversMore torture than pleasureAnd just past your lipsThere's more anger than laughterNot now or forever will I ever change youI know that to go on I'll break you, my habitYou taught my heartA sense I never knew I hadI can't forgetThe times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truthHow do you do it?You're my heroineI will save myself
