Original song- "Opium" - Video
PUBLISHED:  Aug 06, 2012
DESCRIPTION:
The second song I have written. I am not entirely happy with this recording, but it was the best out of 10 takes. The D minor chord did not like me today. This is probably my least favorite of the songs I have written, but regardless, here are the lyrics.

Verse 1:

do you lie awake tonight?
do your green eyes cry?
do you think of our last embrace?
I know I said I'd always be there.
I know I said I'd always care.
and somehow, in your heart, I still have a place.

Pre-chorus:

I'll be the war inside of your mind
the bad-habit love you can't leave behind
I'll haunt your smile, embody your tears
I'll be the cause of all of your fears

Chorus:

I'll be your opium
can't turn away, can't think straight
and now it's all too late
you love me- it's your fate

Verse 2:

that look in your eyes
is the oddest I've seen
sweeter than honey
but oh how it stings
my laugh sounds falsetto
only adds to the gloom
when will this be over;
can you leave soon?
but no, oh no.
we're not together anymore
the words catch in your throat
I'm not yours to beg for

(repeat chorus)

Bridge:

you've never known anything of pain,
meaningless hurt, nothing to gain.
don't reach for me, I'm not your crutch
oh, never thought we could feel this much


repeat pre-chorus and chorus, end
