about

This song is about addictive behaviour specifically in a relationship. It has a punchy drum and bass line that drives the song and powerful vocals that take the song to another level.

lyrics

Baby, you’ll be alright when I leave you
Cause honey I’m the only one who would ever need you
I’ve watched you grow older in a matter of days at a time
Throwing away your life just to erase another line

You told me that love would last forever
But now I see that’s only when there’s nothing better

The drugs can’t help him no more
No more, no more, no more than I can
The drugs can’t help him no more
No more, no more, no more than I can
That’s why I’m leaving you to hang out dry
That’s why I’m leaving you to hang out dry

Angel, I can’t promise you nothing more this time.
Our lungs are on fire our only desire
Under you
I draw the line

Where did lust go when all else is broken
Where will I go when you’ll be left outspoken

The drugs can’t help him no more
No more, no more, no more than I can
The drugs can’t help him no more
No more, no more, no more than I can
That’s why I’m leaving you to hang out dry
That’s why I’m leaving you to hang out dry

We’re drawing lines in quicksand and hoping for the snow
So, tell me where did either of us go

Darling, you’re gonna have to leave me now you know
The love that you’ve lost
The pain we both caused
We’ll just let it go

You told me
That love would last forever
But now I see
There’s always something better
