I can't sit around while you fall down
Doing things that make me sick
When you say you'll be good today
Well, all that is, is another trick

I claim to be everything you need
When you need more, I can't be found
When you say that it's all ok
It makes me think that you're safe and sound

This is what I say to myself

How many pills must I swallow
Just to see if you will follow?
Contemplate the fading sorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow

It's easy to see what you're doing to me
Fucking with my head again
Up in the clouds, you won't come down
Until we reach the bitter end

This is what I say to myself

How many pills must I swallow
Just to see if you will follow?
Contemplate the fading sorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
How many pills must I swallow
Just to see if you will follow?
Contemplate the fading sorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow

I'm the one that let you be
I'm the one that told you so
I'm the one that came to see
I'm the one that let you go
I'm the one that let you be
I'm the one that told you so
I'm the one that came to see
I'm the one that let you go

This is what I say to myself

How many pills must I swallow
Just to see if you will follow?
Contemplate the fading sorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
How many pills must I swallow
Just to see if you will follow?
Contemplate the fading sorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
Here today and gone tomorrow
