Remedy

Oh, the sweetest remedy Hating you was easier Than letting you leave me Oh, I didn't think it through The hurt, the healing, all of it Has nothing to do with you Ego and me and the devil makes three Do you remember you cried our love to sleep And I wasn't allowed to be weak? That hurt Oh, the cruelest remedy Hurting me was easier Than getting clean Oh, a sigh to ease the mind You took away my home and left An empty house behind Ego and me and the devil makes three Do you remember you cried our love to sleep And I wasn't allowed to be weak? That hurt Your words differed From the pain in your eyes Could've known you'd pull me down to stay high Ego, you see, put the devil in me Now it's time to let go and leave you be One two three I set you free
