lyrics

When you talk to me
It feels so saccharine, so down again
You might turn the tables once
But I'll find my way back up

When I talk to you
I feel so young again, so wise again
And you just sit there staring
Like I really don't have a clue

What I heard you say
It felt so nonchalant, my heart it stops for you
I need platonic amusement override
I feel it too

What I saw you do
It made me lose my mind, made me cry
In time for you
I reach out knowing exactly what you're gonna do

Shoot me up
You're emotional heroin
It won't work fast
If you pave the way again, cause
I've been on my knees and I've been begging for it
Please, please, please

Shoot me up
You're emotional heroin
It won't work fast
If you pave the way again, cause
I've been on my knees and I've been begging for it
Please, please, please

Most every day is such a chore for me
Such a bore for me to think
In terms of right or wrong
I see you spin

Don't denigrate the ones who care so much
Use them as a crutch, you'll see
The things they say
Will be found in double time

What if I woke up and asked of you
To describe what you see
Swirling memories of lost time
Want to reclaim all they've been
If you can afford to jump
Don't try and say I would not mind
I think you know by now exactly how
I picture you in mind

Shoot me up
You're emotional heroin
It won't work fast
If you pave the way again, cause
I've been on my knees and I've been begging for it
Please, please, please

Shoot me up
You're emotional heroin
It won't work fast
If you pave the way again, cause
I've been on my knees and I've been begging for it
Please, please, please
