Lyrics
Five hundred miles between my mom's place and here and I gotta get there before dawn
The sun sets around five these days and I know you hate the dark
So, I turned every last light on
The only thing I ever took from you is some valium and codeine
I know you got some things to say about it, but I gotta ease the pain
Was gonna call and let you know I'm safe, but I was never yours to lose
You never pick up the phone this late, it's just a drunk or more bad news
I know you won't miss all the talkin' the minute that we wake up
You hand a whiskey to yourself in your favorite broken cup
I reckon you won't even know I'm gone until the kitchen isn't clean
I'll check the rent won't be late, but you still forget to latch the chain
The only thing I ever took from you is some valium and codeine
I know you got some things to say about it, but I gotta ease the pain
Even though my heart is set on leaving, it’s long, long road
Every word from your mouth says I told you so
I reckon you won't even know I’m gone 'til the kitchen isn't clean
I'll check the rent won't be late, but you still forget to latch the chain
The only thing I ever took from you was some valium and codeine
I know you got some things to say about it, but I gotta ease the pain
