Kool-Aid Lyrics by Nervous Dater

Nervous Dater EP

2015

[Verse 1]
Somewhere inside of you
You've got the guts
To tell me you don't love me anymore, but
You just let it all go
Let your eyes roll back, to the back of your skull
I am sick to my stomach
Of you telling me that this is just for my health
It's all to protect my feelings
That's bullshit, you do it to protect yourself
[Chorus]
I was up late, drinking your Kool-Aid
And smoking the cigarette butts out of the ashtrays
If I knock this last one back I might finally get some sleep
[Verse 2]
I pray to gods I don't believe in
That you would have nowhere to go
But you got a new man, went all the way to New Mexico
And I am stuck in this city
That's packed to the gills with garbage and snow
Decisions were made and mistakes made them harder
At the end of the day you just can't finish anything you started
Go on and make your escape
Before I'm just another stupid thing that you hate
[Chorus]
Staying up late, drinking your kool-aid
And smoking the cigarette butts out of the ashtrays
If I knock this last one back I might finally go to sleep
[Outro]
You were always my greatest mistake
Thought I needed you around to help me keep my shape
Always the leaf blower, never the rake
Blow all your problems around, never collect them all in one place
You were always my greatest mistake
Thought I needed you around to help me keep my shape
Always the leaf blower, never the rake
Blow all your problems around, never collect them all in one place
