Lyrics - My Darling Addict

I remember who you were when we first met
Walking empty streets and smoking in the park
I knew you’d steal my heart and you were trouble
But who’da thought we’d end up where we are

You had a lot of friends that weren’t your friends
In the end I wound up paying dearly for it kid
Before I knew I’d fallen in too deep
With you, with pills, with lighters and with rigs

Love your blood
is bitter bitter and metallic
and I don’t have the money honey
to support that kind of habit
and you know I love you
but your bitten bitten rabid
and I don’t have it in me
to support my darling addict

You were trying to live a better life for once
But the past’s a fucking hard thing to escape
And boy while you always had the best intent
you made mistake after mistake after mistake

Love your blood
is bitter bitter and metallic
and I don’t have the money honey
to support that kind of habit
and you know I love you
but your bitten bitten rabid
and I don’t have it in me
to support my darling addict

How long you think those scars will mark your arm?
Will you pay me back for saving your friend’s life?
If those fuckers want to stab me in the back
Do you want me to show them where to put the knife?

Love your blood
is bitter bitter and metallic
and I don’t have the money honey
to support that kind of habit
and you know I love you
but your bitten bitten rabid
and I don’t have it in me
to support my darling addict

When times with you were good they were best
and I know I’ll still miss you when your gone
But babe there’s only so much I can take
If you want your stuff its out there on the lawn
