Addicted

I don't know what has happened
There's only one thing I know for sure
We're broken and in need of some fixing.
We argue all the time.  We don't get along anymore.
And you turn to your addiction for consolation.
And we argue some more.

If you chose me as your drug instead
We wouldn't get along like this
If you were addicted to my love
We wouldn't argue like this.

Now you're telling me you want a break
It's the only way to fix us.
You'll clean up your act and get better
And we'll find our way back to each other.

Maybe it's good for us...some time apart.
Maybe it's the only way to mend our hearts.

I should've been strong from the beginning
Walked away at the first sign of bad.
To show you I wasn't gonna take it.
And maybe you wouldn't take for granted what you have.

But now it's too late because we're broken.
We argue all the time.  We don't get along anymore.
And you turn to your addiction for consolation.
And we argue some more.

You tell me that we're done, but then ask me to lay with you.
You say you want a break, tell me to chill with you.
I'm sorry baby, but you can't have your cake and eat it too.

You have to stop playing these games.
You're wearing me down to the bone.
My heart, my mind & my soul are tired.
And they're gonna give up soon.

I wish you would choose me as your drug
We wouldn't get along like this
If you were addicted to my love
We wouldn't argue like this.
Maybe it's good for us...some time apart.
Maybe it's the only way to mend our hearts.
I know you love me. I know you care.
But you're afraid of change.

Well maybe if I walk away
Maybe if for once I don't stay
Maybe then you'll realize
That I could give you a natural high.

So stop playin these games
Tell me to leave and makin me stay.
Maybe it's good for us...some time apart.
Maybe it's the only way to mend our hearts.
But you can't have both.  It's not fair to me.
Make me your drug, be addicted to me.
