The drugs begin to peak

A smile of joy arrives in me

But sedation changes to panic and nausea

And breath starts to shorten and heartbeats pound softer

You won't try to save me

You just want to hurt me, and leave me desperate

You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had

I can forget the times that I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth, how do you do it?

You're my heroine

You won't leave me alone

Chisel my heart out of stone, I give in every time

You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had

I can forget the times that I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth, how do you do it?

You're my heroine

I bet you laugh at the thought of me thinking for myself

I bet you believe that I'm better off with you than someone else

Your face arrives again

A hope I had becomes surreal

But under your cover's more torture than pleasure

And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter

Not now or forever will I ever change you

I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit

You taught my heart a sense I never knew I had

I can forget the times that I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth, how do you do it?

You're my heroine

I will save myself!
