FmC#maj7
You are a drug to me
D#7Abmaj7
I never ever thought it otherwise
FmC#maj7
And I love the lies you've told to me
D#7Abmaj7
While looking me directly in my eyes
F7Bbm
This is not ecstasy,
D#7Abmaj7
But it's better than cocaine.
F7Bbm
And you know that I will miss you when you're gone
D#7Abmaj7
But I'm not equipped to play this game
You know your words
They don't mean anything to me
They only serve to fatten up the prey
And when it's time to take them to the slaughterhouse
You slice their throats, continue on your way
F7Bbm
This is not jeopardy
D#7Abmaj7
And it's not your high school prom
F7Bbm
And you know that I will miss you when you're gone
G7Cm
I'm not equipped to be your mom
You are a drug to me
I never ever thought it otherwise
And I love the lies you've told to me
While looking me directly in my eyes
