Drug Was You Lyrics by Sydnee Carter

2021

[Verse 1]
Heard your name for the first time in a while
Hit me like a cannonball somewhere deep inside
I thought my friends had forgotten about you and I
Played it down, but could they see through the lie?
[Pre-Chorus]
It's like a heart before a heart attack
As it takes your breath away, then it takes you back
Tryin' my hardest to not react
But do they know?
You see, I finally found someone who loves me right
And he keeps me on track, pulls me into the light
I'm gonna stay with him for my whole life
'Til I run out of life
[Chorus]
But you take up a corner of my mind
An oasis just bеhind my eyes
In a space whеre I let you hide
That's a place no one else will find
I would have burned down the world for you
Even if you never asked me to
Now I know that's not what lovers do
I'm thinkin' straight, but my drug was always you
[Post-Chorus]
My drug was always you
(My drug was always you)
My drug was always you
[Verse 2]
You found love and just sort of let it go
You said a little break but that just broke it more
I was too young to see through those undertones
But when I hear your name, memories still flood my bones
[Pre-Chorus]
It's like a heart before a heart attack
As it takes your breath away, then it takes you back
Tryin' my hardest to not react
But do they know?
You see, I finally found someone who loves me right
And he keeps me on track, pulls me into the light
I'm gonna stay with him for my whole life
'Til I run out of life
[Chorus]
But you take up a corner of my mind
An oasis just behind my eyes
In a space where I let you hide
That's a place no one else will find
I would have burned down the world for you
Even if you never asked me to
Now I know that's not what lovers do
I'm thinkin' straight, but my drug was always you
[Post-Chorus]
My drug was always you
(My drug was always you)
My drug was always you
(My drug was always you)
My drug was always you
(My drug was always you)
My drug was always you
(My drug was always you)
