Own Medicine

I’m going cross-eyed lookin’ at this small screen just

Waiting for you to acknowledge me.

I needed someone like you to creep in

To remind me I never had thick skin.

You went to work and you never came home

And I walked the beach in the cold alone.

I needed someone like you to remind me

I’m only human… I can feel too.

But you fucked me up.

Yeah you gave me a taste of my own medicine

And it chokes me up

Just thinkin’ how I’ll never feel your warmth again.

I play those hours we spent that night

Over and over in my head like a highlight.

You touched my face like you gave a damn…

Like an actress with a grudge and a revenge plan.

I counted freckles upon your face

When you took your makeup off back at your place.

That mask was nothing compared to the one you had underneath and me under your thumb…

But you fucked me up.

Yeah you gave me a taste of my own medicine

And it chokes me up…

How I’ll never kiss the top of your head again.

And it fucks me up…

Yeah, you gave me a taste.

You fucked me up.

Yeah you gave me a taste of my own medicine

And it chokes me up…

Just thinkin’ how I’ll never feel your warmth again.
