[Intro — Slow, soulful electric blues guitar, expressive bends and warm vibrato] [Verse 1] Eirill, you were always like a drug, One I couldn't ever get enough of. I could spend the whole damn day with you, And still wish that day wasn't through. But somewhere along the way, the feeling changed, It wasn't just a rush I wanted to chase. You went from being someone who could make me feel alive, To being who I needed just to make it through the night. [Pre-Chorus] And I never really noticed when the feeling turned to need, When the love that made me happy became the air I'd breathe. Like a pill that brought me back when I was barely getting by, You became the kind of medicine that made me feel alive. [Chorus] You were my medicine, you made me feel alive, You saw the things in me I'd never recognized. And when I couldn't see my worth, you saw it every time, Until I started seeing myself through your eyes. You were my medicine, when I was barely getting by, You made the pain feel distant, made the darkness feel like light. And somewhere in the middle of just learning about you, I started finding parts of me I never even knew. [Verse 2] You showed me love I never thought I could deserve, And found the good in me I couldn't put in words. You recognized the things I'd always had inside, The parts I'd never noticed, all the things I'd pushed aside. I learned so much about myself from just learning about you, Started finding parts of me I never even knew. You didn't have to change me, didn't have to make me new, You just helped me see the person that I'd always been through you. [Chorus] You were my medicine, you made me feel alive, You saw the things in me I'd never recognized. And when I couldn't see my worth, you saw it every time, Until I started seeing myself through your eyes. You were my medicine, when I was barely getting by, You made the pain feel distant, made the darkness feel like light. And somewhere in the middle of just learning about you, I started finding parts of me I never even knew. [Verse 3 — Intimate, increasingly emotional] Whenever I was overwhelmed, you didn't need to ask, We could spend the night in silence, I could finally drop the mask. One look across the room, you knew the things I couldn't say, And somehow just your presence helped me make it through the day. But when that pressure came back, I still found a place to hide, From the things I should've faced, with you right there by my side. You made the weight feel lighter, but the weight was still on me, You were never meant to fix the things I wouldn't let you see. [Bridge — Rhythmic, soulful, gradually building] My painkiller when I hurt, Antidepressant when I'd sink. Antipsychotic when the noise Got too damn loud to think. Mood stabilizer when the days All started blurring into nights. You were all of them in one, Without a side effect in sight. [Instrumental Break — Extended, emotionally intense electric blues guitar solo. Crying bends, soaring sustained notes, soulful vibrato, expressive phrasing, building to a powerful emotional climax] [Outro — Instrumentation softens, intimate and vulnerable vocals] You never had side effects, At least none that I could see. You couldn't silence every hurt, But you brought some peace to me. But I never read the warning That was waiting to come true... The worst withdrawals I'd ever feel Would come from losing you. [Outro Guitar Solo — Slow, heartbreaking electric blues guitar, long sustained bends, fading gently into silence] [End]
