(I'd Take) Headphones Over Painkillers
Tonight, the headphones
Will drown out the sound of your voice,
An echo of the past,
A name that screams misery.
And I'll forget all about those
Cliche lines,
Those distracting eyes,
Those wasted nights.
Visions of blurred summer sunsets,
Long night walks and late night talks,
I've tried everything to forget,
To stop wishing on stars for you.
Tonight the storm grey sky
Will cry for me
And I won't lie,
I've been hiding in my dreams.
Tonight the call of the crowd
Will bring me out
And I'll stand up
Just to sit back down,
But I won't forget to smile.
