Heroine
More morphine, please
Maybe I won't feel my chest
Slowly caving in
Can't you find an anecdote
Or a medicinal aid
That will rid me of these flashbacks?
And stop these heart attacks?
Cause when my body goes rigid, I see his face
When my skin feels clammy, I hear his voice
See, I had a plan
I had control
I'd work things out and be the heroine
But you had a plan
And I lost control
Now it feels like I'm doped up on heroine
I've been admitted
To a place where recovery
Doesn't exist
Where the longing doesn't end
It's only just beginning
Can you keep the respirator on?
I can't breathe without him
Cause when my body goes rigid, I see his face
When my skin feels clammy, I hear his voice
See, I had a plan
I had control
I'd work things out and be the heroine
But you had a plan
And I lost control
Now it feels like I'm doped up on heroine
Tag me, cover me, send me along
I'm renowned for living empty
And now I can't live at all
