Painkillers - Brian Fallon

I feel you move through this crowded room

And I catch myself like a spell fallen under you

I’ve been here before

Watching the wheels go round

Everybody that I’ve ever known

They just ache all night and they wake up alone

Yeah, we wait in the dark

For something to put us to sleep

And, oh, my dear, you never know how

'Til the things you’ve done come and run you down

And we want love like it was a drug

All we wanted was a little relief

And every heart I held in between

They were painkillers to me

They were painkillers to me

And could you be to me a love supreme?

Cause we wait out this life just to hold on to anything

Cause most of the sparks are just

Sweet little cherry bombs

But oh my dear don’t make a sound

'Till somebody burns you and spits you out

And we want love like it was a drug

All we wanted was a little relief

And every heart I held in between

They were painkillers to me

They were painkillers to me

Use me up!

Use me up!

Yeah and I’ll be enough

Come and use me up

Use me up!

Oh don’t you love the way I drag you down?

Ain’t that enough for you now?

Don’t you want love like it was a drug?

Yea don’t you want a little relief?

From every heart I held in between

They were painkillers to me

They were painkillers to me

And we want love like it was a drug

Yeah all we wanted was a little relief

And every heart I held in between

They were painkillers to me

They were painkillers to me

Come get your painkillers from me
