Lyrics

Pay Phones and Pills

I can still see

You sucking the life out of me

I can still feel the chill

Down my spine when you told me

Always one fateful night

That turns the tide

Always one fateful night

With nowhere to hide

To live and die

In a day there's nothing

Left to say

Time will not erase

The counting down of the days

You finally got

What you've been waiting for

A handful of pills

Didn't soften the blow

One month of sucking it in

It started to show

Waking up to realize

It's not a dream

Was the hardest thing
