Bad Prescription

It's been six months since you stopped caring about me
 It's been seven since you left and I find it hard to breathe
 Not here to stay, I'm here to pick up my things
 Like the heart you broke and all the sitcom memories
 I won't get back, you fell through the cracks
 You are the tumor that's sitting in my brain
 You are the poison blood in my veins
 And I am the nasty pill you used to take
 But then you feel better and you threw the prescription away
 A second too late, a heartbeat that shakes
 A voice that cracks when you tell me
 Thinking about what was missed out on, maybe an anniversary
 Thinking about catching up every once in a while
 And then I get to remembering, I'm not exactly on your speed dial
 And you are the tumor in my brain
 And I am the poison blood in my own veins
 And I am the nasty pill that you used to take
 Then you feel better and you threw your prescription away
 Heard you went off to join the army
 Fighting for a country you never believed in
 I guess you must have changed your once good intentions
 But it's good to know you're going sober
 You're finding your way back home
 I just wish you would have let somebody help you
 Cause you never had to do it all alone
 I am the tumor sitting in my own brain
 And I am the poison blood running through my tired veins
 And I am the nasty pills that I still take
 And I hope that one day I can throw the prescription away
 And I hope that one day I will throw the prescription away
