My Heroine

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't 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 everytime
 You taught my heart
 A sense I never knew I had
 I can't 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 (myself)
 I bet you believe (bet you believe)
 That I'm better off with you than someone else
 Your face arrives again
 A hope I had become surreal
 But under your covers
 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't forget
 The times that I was lost and depressed from the awful truth
 How do you do it?
 You're my heroine
 But I will save myself!
