The Perfect Drug

The Perfect Drug

Intoxicating.  That's the only word I can use to describe you.  The way you sit there, poring over your schoolwork, the way your nose wrinkles when you're concentrating.  The sweet scent of your lavender shampoo mixed with the unmistakable scent of your tangerine hand cream.  I feel like I'm drowning in a sea of sensory images.  And that would be all right with me.

I got my head but my head is unraveling
cant keep control can't keep track of where it's traveling
I got my heart but my heart's no good
you're the only one that's understood

And yet you don't seem to realize what your presence does to me.  How I ache to pull you into my arms and run my fingers through your hair and run my mouth all over your vanilla skin tasting what I've only dreamed about before.

 

I come along but I don't know where you're taking me
I shouldn't go but you're wrenching dragging shaking me
turn off the sun pull the stars from the sky
the more I give to you the more I die

You're intoxicating.  The more I see of you, the more I need to have you.  I want to be with you every second of every day, to feel your warmth.  To be completely inside of you, invading your soul.  I want your every thought to be of me, like I am with you.  I need you.

and I want you

you are the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug

I can never get enough.

you make me hard when I'm all soft inside
I see the truth when I'm all stupid-eyed
the arrow goes straight through my heart
without you everything just falls apart

You sit there, clacking away at your computer, oblivious to everything and everyone.  This is to my advantage.  I can lie here and watch you, imagining your soft lips and warm skin.  I'm drunk with passion for you, and you don't even know it.

my blood just wants to say hello to you
my fear is warm to get inside of you
my soul is so afraid to realize
how every little bit is left of me

I want to pull you over to me, claim you for my own, mark my territory.  I want to do everything I've only dreamed about doing.  But only with you.  It's always been you…

and I want you

you are the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug
the perfect drug

take me with you

I can never get enough.

without you everything just falls apart

it's not as much fun to pick up the pieces

I want you so badly I can taste it.  You don't realize what you're doing to me.  My life is in rags and I hate you because of it.  But that only makes me want you more. 

You're intoxicating.
