Friends For Sale - When the Pills Swallowed Maddison Lyrics

And all was quiet but the sound
Of you sobbing into my shirt
And there were cuts all over your thighs
As you said all you wanted was an ending
And there were bottles on the floor
And I didn't recognize your eyes
I felt your heart beating slower
As you told me you made a mistake
Then there was noise
And there were sirens on the wind
But there was no telling how far they were
And there was dirt
On both our clothes
As we both lie in the front yard
As I begged you to stay awake
And it was good
That you pulled through
But you went right back to that place
Down the street where it always starts
You know there's not much I can do
To make it feel just like 2002
And there's nothing left to smoke or chew
At least nothing that we're not used to
We found comfort in the booze
You always said that was something you'd never do
But look at us now
And we're both lonely yeah, that's true
Fell in love with the feeling of being used
Sure there were people who might have had
Good intentions but they never made us feel numb
Lucky for us there were pills
Not quite death, but close enough to kill
All of our useless emotions
That did nothing but weigh us down.
But then you couldn't quit
Lying awake in a cold sweat
Then you called him at 3 A.M.
Saying you'll do anything for a bottomless bag
Then that's when I lost touch with you
Packed your things, moved off with f*ck knows who
And even all of these years later
I'm still hoping that you're alive and alright
You vanished without a clue
Your own sister says she hates you
Were we friends or just a ruse?
Surely after all we went through
All I have left is a picture or two
And a note that said
"I always saw through you
You're not that unusual"
