Medicine

Call off the flashing blue lights
I'm here for you
If you let me in
I'll be your medicine
I know the memories beat you black and blue
I'll fix everything
I know I can cure you
And be your medicine

It's complicated
Two people picture-perfect depending on how you paint it
It's crazy how much I love you and how much I can hate it
You left a permanent mark on my heart, I can't erase it
The only one who can break it and knows how to replace it
And still I take it, that's how I know I'm crazy
That's why I'm kicking the door and you're screaming out you hate me
But this is how you made me
And it's too late to change me
Who is the man in the mirror? Don't recognize him lately
You say you're leaving while I'm screaming through the wall
If it's easy just to leave me, what the hell you waiting for?
Let's be honest, we'd be better if we never met at all
'Cause it's clear to see that you and me were broken from the start

Call off the flashing blue lights
I'm here for you
If you let me in
I'll be your medicine
I know the memories beat you black and blue
I'll fix everything
I know I can cure you
And be your medicine

All the shit that I'm saying is not me
But you bring the devil right out me
Guess you could be better without me
I got home around 3, then you scream
"Why you get back so late?
When you said you'd be home by 8?
When you promised you'll make a change
All these years and you're still the same"
"Oh, you think that I'm still the same?
After everything I became?
Only thing you're good for's complaining
You fucking bitch, you're insane"
"Wait, what the fuck did you call me?
Don't walk away, don't ignore me"
And then we say these words that can't be taken back with a sorry
Till I can't take it no more
My bags are packed by the door
But it don't matter where I go, I know I'll always be yours

Call off the flashing blue lights
I'm here for you
If you let me in
I'll be your medicine
I know the memories beat you black and blue
I'll fix everything
I know I can cure you
And be your medicine

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
I know I can cure you
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
I know I can cure you
And be your medicine

So let me take away the pain
Don't worry, it'll be okay
I promise that I'm gonna stay
And take us back to yesterday
So let me take away the pain
Don't worry, it'll be okay
I promise that I'm gonna stay

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
I know I can cure you
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
I know I can cure you
Be your medicine
