You're like a drug, baby
And I was the addict
You filled me up
Mind, body and soul
I needed you
And I had you every night
But you left me
And took my addiction with you
You found someone else to poison
Now I'm left here shaking and trembling
Needing you back in my life
I can't eat, I can't sleep
Wondering what drug you're giving him
It hurts so bad, baby
I need a shot of you
To go straight to my heart
Fill me up again
Like you use to do
Tap my vein
Wrap your tourniquet around my heart
I'm left here in the dark
Just one more dose
That's all I need of you
Like a Heroine fiend
You're all I need
To get me through the day
I'm straightening out my life, you see
I needed you, but you didn't need me
When I see you with him
I want to go insane
But this addiction that had me
Is starting to go away
I've still got my days
But I know soon you'll fade away
I've still got my prescriptions
For when you want to come back
But until then, I'm getting on with life.

Ugh.. my gf left me for another guy. Funny this is.. she's a lesbian and he's gay. Figure THAT one out everyone...

Wow, yes love is like a drug, and it's hard to get over, and not be addicted to it. Good luck in the contest.
