Meryl Rudy - Like a Drug (feat. Ava Roche & Tristan Simone) Lyrics

You're not a walk in the park or a summer afternoon
You're the black in my coffee & sweetness in my tooth
Something's got me driving miles & miles for you
I can't tell why your crazy makes me want to see it through
You've got a hold on me, though I keep on tryna leave
You're the rope in my spine & the tear in my sleeve
Something's keeping me on your leash
Wish my heart had the strength to let go of your tease

And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug
And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug

You're my lover, you're the one I always want when I'm too gone
You're holding all the cards; when I'm a spade you're not my heart
Something makes me forget all the rules
Don't know why I keep playing this game of fools
You've got a hold on me, though I keep on tryna leave
You're the ghost in my home, boy, you're still haunting me
Something's drowning out my screams
Wish my heart had the space to get some release

And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug
And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug

I guess I took one many cuz I'm seeing four of you
Like one in front & one in back, you're always watching, making moves
You act as though you're not a crutch, but I'm walking side to side
Like when I take a drug, but it doesn't hit me right
I need some tea to fix my ache from being with you all this time
You've become a chore but I want more
I beg you, stay the night
You underestimate what I can take, but I'm tryin to stay alive
You're toxic, my love, & you're something I can't fight

And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug
And run away from you, baby, before I become someone I shouldn't love
We're wasted & baby you're taking me like I'm a drug
Like I'm a drug
Like I'm a drug
Like I'm a drug
