Silverstein

My Heroine

The drugs begin to peak

A smile of joy arrives in me

But sedation changes to panic and nausea

And breath starts to shorten

And heartbeats pound softer

You won't try to save me!

You just want to hurt me and leave me desperate!

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.

I can forget, the times that I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth

How do you do it?

You're my heroine!

You won't leave me alone!

Chisel my heart out of stone, I give in everytime.

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had

I can forget, the times that I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth

How do you do it?

You're my heroine!

I bet you laugh, at the thought of me thinking for myself. (myself)

I bet you believe, that I'm better off with you than someone else.

Your face arrives again, all hope I had becomes surreal.

But under your covers more torture than pleasure

And just past your lips there's more anger than laughter

Not now or forever will I ever change you

I know that to go on, I'll break you, my habit!

You taught my heart, a sense I never knew I had.

I can forget, the times when I was

Lost and depressed from the awful truth

How do you do it?

You're my heroine!

I will save myself!
