Wonder Drug

Shakespeare in study hall Percocet and some Adderall Doctor called it a wonder drug Ripped a page from the book of Job I remember you innocent Now all you are is bones and skin With your father's temperament Still paying off that original sin And it never gets easier Remember we had it all planned out A fenced in yard, a job, and some kids How dare you leave me high and dry now? Thinking somehow, it was something I did It's a monster, I know it Its fangs started showing Took more than I ever could give Why couldn't love be the wonder drug? It's the straw and the camel's back I'm so angry and I feel bad Was it God or your parents or the small town that raised you? I held your face in my hands But I still couldn't break through Remember we had it all planned out A fenced in yard, a job, and some kids How dare you leave me high and dry now? Thinking somehow it was something I did It's a monster, I know it Its fangs started showing Grabs hold with the hand that it gives Why couldn't love be the wonder drug? Why couldn't you run to love? Why couldn't you run to love? I wasn't paying attention when The roof was steady, the walls came in Blue collar life and all its weight I was right there and I was too late I was too late I was too late Too late
