Painkillers Lyrics by Lydia May

Orbit

0

[Verse]
She was fine
Before you came in her life
Opened her eyes
Demonised
We forget
How much is said
Fairytale endings but we all know
That the girls don't get to go home
So they keep Thursday nights open
For the experience of a lifetime
Never mind their eyes
Blood sweat and tears are fine
And whilst it numbs the pain
It strips her of indеpendence
Dеpendability becomes the game
Started with coffee now she deteriorates away
[Pre Chorus]
But don't remind yourself of the pain he caused
It was all in his head
It was all in his head
Don't remind yourself of the pain he caused
It was all in his head
It was all in his head
[Verse]
If only she hadn't taken it physically
We'd be in a very different place
Wouldn't have to swallow back the taste
Of insecurity lack of security from society
It's impossible to forget
She carried on whilst her body rejects
[Pre Chorus]
So don't remind yourself of the pain he caused
It was all in his head
It was all in his head
Don't remind yourself of the pain he caused
It was all in his head
It was all in his head
[Chorus]
So now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
And you said take one every time she thinks of these nights
But she went and took too many
Yeah three packets in a row
And now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
[Post Chorus]
They're ruining her mind
They're ruining her mind
We forget how much was said without her self-control
Let her spiral through an overwhelming road
[Chorus]
And now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
Coz you said take one every time she thinks of these nights
But oh she went and took too many
Yeah three packets in a row
And now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
[Post Chorus]
They're ruining her mind
They're ruining her mind
Oh he left her in the dark
Never mind what was started
Her mind
[Chorus]
Now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
Coz you said take one every time she thinks of these nights
But she went and took too many
Oh three packets in a row
And now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
[Outro]
Now these painkillers
Painkillers are ruining her mind
