Side Effects (ft. Lizi Annem)

The label said careful, I laughed it away Put you under my tongue, And waited for the pain to fade. We knew better than to start, We thin each other's chances, While we bruise each other's hearts. You gave me comfort, I gave you scars. Now we're both pretending, This didn't go too far. You held the bottle, I held the blame. We both knew the warning, And took it anyway, yeah. Life tastes bitter, When the sweet part leaves. I can’t tell the cure from the disease, When you’re still in my blood, baby. Don't ask me why I stayed, I liked the high but hated the ache. Side effects may include: Waking up without you. Reaching over to your side of the bed, And wishing it weren't true. Side effects may include: Realizing that we're through. Stumbling through old conversations, Wishing back then I knew what to do, Don't take it just to feel the high, Swallow the pill, and you realize, The side effects may include, Losing you. I threw away the number, Still know it by heart. Tried to cut the feeling out, But it lingers in the dark. Every little trigger, Pulls me back again. Like a prescription I don't need, But I keep filling in. I tell myself I'm better, I say I'm moving on. Then your shadow hits the doorway, And my resolve is gone. The warning signs were written, In every goodbye kiss. But some addictions leave a mark, Deeper than this. I knew exactly what we'd become, Still chased the feeling when I should've run. Side effects may include: Waking up without you. Reaching over to your side of the bed, And wishing it weren't true. Side effects may include: Realizing that we're through. Stumbling through old conversations, Wishing back then I knew what to do. Don't take it just to feel the high, Swallow the pill, and you realize, The side effects may include, Losing you. Just swallow that pill... Swallow that pill... Swallow that pill... Let me chase that high... Chase that high... Chase that high... I'm losin' my mind. Side effects may include: Waking up without you. Reaching over to your side of the bed, And wishing it weren't true. Side effects may include: Realizing that we're through. Stumbling through old conversations, Wishing back then I knew what to do, Don't take it just to feel the high, Swallow the pill, and you realize, The side effects may include, Include... Losing you.
