lyrics

I said I was alone when I was with you, with you
He called me on the phone what else could I do, could I do
I went into the bathroom stall to take the call
I missed the bus that day
And had to walk the whole way

I stayed up half the night to run into you, into you
I thought that we were psychically in tune
And I would find you
I waited by the concrete wall in case you called
In case you felt the same
Just to see you again

And I'm not sorry
That I didn't tell him the truth
That I was there with you and I was glad to be

Cause the truth is I couldn't help it if I tried
I needed you I felt it deep down inside
It couldn't be denied

Your body felt like Vicodin
I chased it more each day
Your body felt like Vicodin
It took my pain away

Took the pain away
Took the pain away
Took the pain away

The night was cold you came for me in a storm, in a storm
The snow was falling fast like me
It was cold, but you were warm
I felt so proud that you would want to walk with me
In front of all your friends
Just to see me again

And I'm not sorry
That I didn't tell him the truth
That I was so obsessed with you

Cause the truth is I couldn't help it if I tried
I needed you I felt it deep down inside
It couldn't be denied

Your body felt like Vicodin
I chased it more each day
Your body felt like Vicodin
It took my pain away

Took the pain away
Took the pain away
Took the pain away

I didn't wanna feel it
How we were falling apart at the seams
I didn't wanna feel it
How he was falling out of love with me
I needed what you gave

Your body felt like Vicodin
I chased the high each day
Your body felt like Vicodin
It took the pain away

Took the pain away
Took the pain away
Took my pain away
